What Are My Choices

If you have a viable pregnancy you have three choices to consider. Are you going to go with abortion or adoption? Or will you choose to become a parent?

Abortion

If you’re considering taking abortion pills, at-home methods or getting an in-clinic abortion, we can answer questions you have, and help you learn more about your options. We provide free ultrasound* services performed by medically licensed personnel to confirm a viable pregnancy and to inform you about your options. The available abortion methods vary depending on how far along you are in your pregnancy. We can determine your pregnancy stage and explain the different abortion methods. While we offer accurate information about all your pregnancy options, we do not offer or refer for abortion services.



* Ultrasound scans are used to confirm the presence of a viable, uterine pregnancy. We do not use ultrasound to determine gender or diagnose abnormalities. Eligibility criteria apply.

Adoption

We provide free information about the process for birth parents and referrals to agencies that best meet your needs. In most cases, financial assistance for medical and living expenses is available for the birth mother, along with many other benefits.


There is plenty of time to consider whether adoption is the right parenting choice for your child, what type of family you want to place your child with, and how much ongoing contact you want. We can help you consider the facts, as you decide if it may be a fit for your situation. We're not affiliated with any adoption agency and never profit from your decision.
