Observed every April, National Infertility Awareness Week highlights a journey that is more common and more complex than many realize. It also calls for greater awareness, advocacy, and access to comprehensive, stigma-free fertility care.
💜💜💜💜💜💛
Infertility affects about 1 in 6 couples. It’s not solely a woman’s issue; male factor infertility contributes to nearly half of cases, making evaluation of both partners essential. Even with regular cycles, fertility isn’t guaranteed, and many cases remain unexplained, adding to the uncertainty.
🫶
At Connect, we take a root-cause, patient-centered approach to infertility, seeking to understand the “why” behind your journey and walking alongside you with compassionate, personalized care. If you’re looking for answers or support, we invite you to schedule an appointment and take the next step. This week is more than awareness, but it’s a call to foster understanding, expand access to care, and support individuals as whole people.

If you are walking this path: your story matters, your experience is valid, and you are not alone.🤗

🫶Since 1992, April has been recognized as “Stress Awareness Month. Most of us are acutely aware of the stress in our lives. In today’s world, where we are increasingly busy, and demands seem to mount up like dirty laundry, what are we to do with this stress? There are many healthy coping strategies that most of us are familiar with for managing life’s stressors. Getting regular exercise, maintaining a healthy diet, talking with a trusted friend, ensuring adequate rest, and practicing a healthy work-life balance. And then there are those stressors in everyone’s life that just aren’t something that a good long nap can fix. Real life has real problems, and these stressors cause heavy hearts, silent struggles, and overwhelming burdens for us to bear. In those times, we turn to hope.🙏

Each month, The Arc Aid Thrift Store selects an organization in the community to offer a “Round Up” opportunity to their patrons! In the month of April, The Arc graciously selected Connect Medical Clinic as the Round Up organization of the month!

You may have heard us mention “Connectables” and wondered what that means 💛

Connectables are essential items we collect to support the families and individuals we care for. These can include things like diapers, wipes, hygiene items, gift cards, and other everyday necessities that help lighten the load during a tender season of life.

Because of generous support from our community, we’re able to come alongside families in a practical, meaningful way—meeting real needs with care and dignity.

**This week, we are especially in need of:**
• Size 3 diapers

If you’ve ever given, donated, or shared about Connectables—thank you. You’re part of the reason we’re able to show up for families when it matters most 💛

You can feel the seasons starting to shift—summer is right around the corner ☀️

Before the school year wraps up, we’ve been finishing our last rounds of education across the area. Just before the Hope Banquet, we spent time at Dickinson High School, and this week our Care Team split up to serve students at Trinity High School and Mott-Regent High School.

From puberty and holistic health to STIs and identity, these conversations matter—and they don’t stop when school does.

Even as the year ends, we’re still here for you. Whether it’s a sports physical, menstrual care concern, education for your organization, or a decision-making appointment—we’re just a phone call away 💛

On April 22nd, we celebrate Administrative Professionals Day and honor the team members who take care of every visitor and every detail with dignity!

Amanda, our Patient Experience Coordinator, ensures that every patient who books an appointment, checks in to see the team, and follows up to rebook or pay their bill receives a dignified experience. She is the first team member that most clinic guests meet, and we are so grateful for her warm presence and discerning heart!

April, our Director of Administration, is in charge of paying the bills, receipting donors, contract and insurance management, and SO much more! Her attention to detail is second to none and her care for vendors and donors extends dignity-centered care beyond the exam room!

Thank you to Amanda and April and every Administrative Professional! You are seen, heard, and valued!!

Join us in thanking Amanda and April for saying “yes!” to God’s call to Connect in the comments below!

This April, during National Sexually Transmitted Infection (STI) Awareness Month, we are reminded of the importance of caring for the bodies God has entrusted to us. Sexual health is an important part of whole-person wellness, and seeking knowledge, testing, and care is an act of stewardship.🙏

STIs are more common than many realize. Nearly 1 in 5 people 🧍‍♀️🧍🧍‍♂️🧍‍♀️🧍 in the U.S. have an STI at any given time, with approximately 20 million new infections each year. Many infections have no symptoms, meaning individuals can unknowingly carry and spread them without routine screening. If left untreated, some STIs can lead to serious long-term health complications, including infertility, chronic pelvic pain, and increased risk of certain cancers.👥

The good news is that many STIs are treatable, and some are curable when caught early. ✅Testing is quick, simple, and often free or low-cost at Connect. There is no shame in getting tested. It is a step toward truth, healing, and responsible care. Choosing to know your status reflects courage and respect for yourself and others.

🫵You matter. Your future matters. You were created with intention and purpose. Protect what God has made, and take steps toward health, healing, and wholeness.🙏💪

Oh, what a night! 😎✨On behalf of the whole team, thank you for your generosity. It was an honor to pray for, listen to, and connect with the almost 500 people who attended the banquet last night.

☀️The team met this morning to debrief, praising God for all that He made possible at the banquet and all He will do because of your generosity in the coming year. We also brainstormed ways we can make next year's banquet even more dignity-centered. 🙏The one thing every team member shared: gratitude. I truly don't have enough or adequate words to express what your support means — to the patients, to the community, to the team, and to me. Your donation will change lives this year, and that, my friends, is hope. 🕊

With so much gratitude,

Jillian Kubik, COO
