The path to parenthood can be difficult, and for those struggling with infertility, it can feel like a very lonely road. Even though one in eight couples in America have trouble conceiving or sustaining a pregnancy, it can still be hard to find support during a stressful time — one that’s both emotionally and physically draining. That’s why HII partners with Maven, a benefit that provides free access to virtual care for fertility, pregnancy, parental guidance, postpartum, adoption, surrogacy and returning to work after parental leave. For Mission Technologies employee Lisa Capocci and her husband, Maven was a lifeline while on their adoption journey.

“We struggled with infertility for about six years. Emotionally, mentally and financially we were just so tired. Fertility treatments are expensive and not fully covered by insurance, and on top of that, the emotional struggle was just too much. We used Maven to talk to counselors, to FaceTime with an adoption advocate, and to access trusted resources and articles. The fact that it was all free was a huge deal.” – Lisa Capocci
