About Us
We visit with over 200 women every month. They typically range in age
from 13 to 45. 30% are 15 to 19 and about 30% are in the 20 to 24 age
range. Of the women who come for a pregnancy test, 54% are usually
pregnant and 46% are not. Of the 40% who are pregnant, 60 to 70% are
considering terminating their pregnancy.
We have a staff of about 35 active volunteers who are trained in
crisis counseling. Their job is to walk through the crisis with our
client. Our volunteers are trained to be HUGE. H is for humility U for unconditional love G is for genuineness E is for empathy.
As we offer HUGE to our clients, they have the freedom to explore
their fears and the issues in their life that makes their pregnancy an
overwhelming event.
We are affiliated with the national
organization, CareNet
and
NIFLA.
Our Promise to You
We are dedicated to
providing a warm and safe environment to every one, regardless of your
age, race, income, nationality, religious affiliation or
circumstances. You will receive all of
our services free of charge. You will be treated with
kindness and compassion and may leave the center whenever you wish. Your story will be
listened to with respect and courtesy, and without judgment, ridicule,
or rejection. You have the right to
withhold any information you do not want to share with a volunteer.
All information shared will be held in strict and absolute confidence,
except in rare circumstances when prohibited by law. You will receive accurate
information about pregnancy, fetal development, life-style issues, and
related concerns. The pregnancy center does not provide abortion or
referrals for abortion, but we are committed to offering accurate
information about abortion procedures and risks. You many refuse any
information you do not wish to receive. You will receive honest
and open answers. You will be directed to
other appropriate resources that could support you in your time of
crisis and supply you with additional help and information. You will be given ongoing
support, in accordance with your needs.
