Is abortion my only option?
When experiencing an unplanned pregnancy, many women experience a range of emotions and may feel overwhelmed by decisions they face. Our trained advocates are here to listen and support you.

Parenting
You may have questions about parenting—or feel like becoming a parent isn’t possible right now. Many young women share concerns like:
-
My partner doesn’t want the baby, but I do
-
I can’t tell my family
-
How will I finish school or keep working?
-
Where will I live?
-
I don’t have medical insurance
-
I can’t afford a child
-
I’m too young
We’re here to answer your questions, help you identify support in your life and community, and talk through your options so you can decide whether parenting is right for you.
Adoption

Adoption offers many choices. You can decide whether your adoption will be open or closed, private or through an agency, and how involved you want to be in choosing an adoptive family.
You are in control when creating your adoption plan. Adoption may be an option if you:
-
Aren’t ready to be a parent
-
Want your child to grow up in a two-parent household
-
Want to provide long-term emotional and financial stability
We can connect you with trusted local adoption services to help you explore your options.

Abortion
We are a pro-life organization and do not provide abortion referrals. However, if you are considering abortion, it’s important to understand that it is a medical procedure and to have accurate information before making a decision.
You may be feeling pressured or unsure, thinking:
-
The father is insisting on an abortion
-
I’m not ready to be a parent
-
I can’t tell anyone I’m pregnant
You’re not alone. We’ve talked with many women facing these same concerns. If you’re considering abortion, it’s important to know:
-
Are you actually pregnant?
-
Is your pregnancy progressing normally, or is there a risk of miscarriage or ectopic (tubal) pregnancy?
-
How far along are you?
You may also want clear information about:
-
What abortion procedures involve
-
Your rights with abortion providers
-
Whether parental consent is required
-
Possible short-term and long-term risks
