No matter what shape your family is or whether it includes a ā€˜dadā€™, a big shout out to all the donor conceived people for whom navigating this day might be a bit tricky.

And also to those that arenā€™t fazed.

Meikeā€™s 11yo daughter normally takes her grandad to these things but heā€™s not well enough to go this year. ā€œSince you do all the dad things in our family, can you come to the a Fatherā€™s Day breakfast instead?!ā€

How great does this sound?!

šŸ§”This is an opportunity to have your say about the future of fertility care in AustraliašŸ’š

Public consultation is now open on the draft National Safety and Quality Standards for Assisted Reproductive Technology Services ā€” and itā€™s something we think everyone touched by fertility treatment should know about.

Yesterday, Meike participated in a group discussion with the Australian Commission on Safety and Quality in Health Care alongside other people with lived experience of donor conception.

Our collective goal is simple: to improve standards of care for everyone involved in fertility treatment ā€” but particularly for the people who are born as a result of it.

Because fertility treatment doesnā€™t end when a baby is born.

The decisions made, information provided and practices followed by fertility clinics can have lifelong implications for donor conceived people.

āš The public consultation is open until 6 September 2026, and the Commission is specifically inviting consumers, donors, donor conceived people and people conceived through ART to complete the consumer survey.

We need as many people as possible to have their say.

šŸ‘‰ First, head to our website and read our Rapid Review update to understand where things are up to and why these new Standards matter.

šŸ‘‰ Then, complete the official consultation survey. It doesn't matter whether your fertility treatment was recent or decades ago ā€” your experience is relevant.

The more lived experience that is brought into this process, the stronger the opportunity to ensure that the future of Australia's fertility sector reflects the needs of everyone it touches ā€” including the people born from fertility treatment.

šŸ“… Submissions close 6 September 2026

šŸ“š BOOK REVIEW: A Kids Book About Donor Conceived People

We LOVE this one. šŸ’›

A Kids Book About Donor Conceived People is written by Taylor Hovish ā€” who is donor conceived herself. In fact, we think this may be the only childrenā€™s book about donor conception written by a donor conceived person.

Designed for primary school-aged kids, this book does more than simply explain what it means to be donor conceived. It includes lots of thoughtful prompts to help keep the conversation going ā€” making it a great resource to come back to as your child grows and develops their own questions.

And itā€™s not just for donor conceived kids and their parents. Itā€™s also a wonderful way for siblings, friends, teachers, extended family and other adults to learn more about what it actually means to be donor conceived.

As always, we love resources that centre the experience of the donor conceived person. ā¤ļø

šŸ§”Today is National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Children's Day.šŸ’š

This year's theme, "Living Our Truth," celebrates the voices, stories and knowledge of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families and communities. It reminds us that truth-telling is more than sharing factsā€”it's about identity, belonging, culture and connection across generations.

At DCP Hub, we believe every child deserves to grow up knowing their story. While every child's story is different, honesty, openness and age-appropriate truth-telling help children build a strong sense of who they are and where they come from.

Today, we acknowledge the enduring strength of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families, communities and Elders, whose knowledge and stories continue to shape future generations.
