Program areas at Hope Pregnancy Resource Center
Our program services consist of free pregnancy testing, counseling, referrals, limited ultrasound, limited STI testing, and maternity and baby items. If someone thinks they might be pregnant, our Registered Nurse will assist with the pregnancy test and possible ultrasound. Our trained staff will also discuss the many different issues they may be facing such as life style changes, attitude toward abortion and adoption, and ways in which Hope PRC can help them carry their baby to term. We are pro-life, and we educate clients of the risks associated with abortions, but we do not support abortions nor the abortion process in any way. We provide a parenting program (see below for more details), a telephone help line, and a web based program which allows individuals to easily contact us. We provide free maternity and baby items including diapers, formula, maternity and baby clothes, strollers and more.The parenting program is called "Earn While You Learn". This program offers 150 lessons that cover all stages of pregnancy, fetal development, nutrition, smoking and other harmful activity, infant massage, newborn care, illnesses, first aid, discipline, adoption, baby sitters, preventing sexual abuse, returning to work, and much more. The program also covers toddlers and life skills. There is also a short Bible Study program the clients can partake of if they wish.With the parenting program, our clients learn how to become good parents and earn credits for baby furniture and miscellaneous baby items. This way they are not just being given a hand out but learning and earning what they need at the same time.
