When you reach out, Michelle or Wendy will answer your call. They'll connect you with a local case manager like Jodi, Kathy, Ashlyn, or Haley, who will listen and help you find the support you need.

There is financial and emotional help

You deserve care to understand all your options. Here's what we offer, completely free of charge as you think about your future. :

• Safe Housing –

We can help you stay in your home or provide a place to live.

Some women from Ohio choose to move into our Utah apartments, where they can relax, heal, and connect with others who understand. The apartments are comfortable, fully furnished, and offer the privacy you need to think clearly and prepare for your baby's birth.

If you prefer to stay in Ohio, we can help with rent, utilities, and housing costs (up to $3,000 in living expenses as allowed by Ohio law).

• Food and Essentials --

Groceries delivered or gift cards to help you buy what you need
Maternity clothes and personal care items
Baby items if you're parenting

• Transportation –

Rides to doctor visits, legal appointments, or counseling sessions are arranged for you.

• Medical Care

Prescriptions and vitamins provided
Help signing up for Medicaid if you need it

• Emotional Support

Licensed counselors available 24/7
Your case manager checks in regularly
Support groups with other birth mothers
Help with anxiety, depression, or fear about pregnancy

Many women tell us they feel scared and alone when they first find out they're pregnant. That's completely normal. We're here to help you work through those feelings.

We never make decisions for you. You choose what's best for your baby and yourself. Your case manager will simply walk beside you, explain your options, and make sure you're treated with dignity and respect.

Our promise: You will always have a voice, and we will always listen.

Getting Started

You can call or text Michelle or Wendy anytime — day or night. They'll answer your questions and help you take the next step.

You don't need to have a plan right now. You just need someone to listen. That's what we're here for.

After You Deliver

After giving birth, your relationship doesn't end with us. Doesn't matter, whether you choose to parent of whether you choose to place your baby for adoption, we'll be available to help you get back on your feet.

If you make an adoption plan, we'll help you:

Arrange contact with the adoptive family (if you want it)
Receive emotional care and counseling
Get help transitioning home

Many women tell us that having someone to talk to after placement made all the difference.
