I came to Reach Out when I was pregnant with my second baby. I recently moved to the US so I didn’t have a lot of friends, my husband was working while I was working part time. I had an abortion before, I regretted and mourned it, so this baby was my first baby to raise in our new marriage. I felt scared and lonely. Reach Out workers embraced me, they listened to me, prayed with me, I learned a lot about caring for my baby and I got diapers, wipes and even a new crib for our baby girl. It was a great experience and I’m thankful for their long term friendship. Even though I wasn’t abortion minded I needed support which I got. Thank you!

This is a clinic designed and operated above all else to discourage women from seeking abortion. If you go here looking for options, they will convince you of only one: to go through with a pregnancy. That's what crisis pregnancy centers do. The choice to have a baby is yours and yours alone, do not let a crisis pregnancy center give you misleading or pressuring information. Avoid this clinic unless you are sure you want a baby.
I work in the field of unsafe abortion globally, and where abortion is legal and providers are trained- like the U.S., abortion is incredibly safe, with very few complications and minimal risks. The language on the website is concerning as it flies in the face of a large body of research that has proven that abortion in settings, like the U.S. is incredibly safe and does NOT cause long-term mental issues in women. The website picks and chooses what information to provide- for instance the National Turnaway Study by ANSIRH has shown that 95% of women do not regret their abortion decisions and that women who are unable to access safe abortion are more likely to be living in poverty and remain in violent relationships. Also, there exists NO evidence that reversing a medication abortion is even possible. The website their webpage links to, \Surrendering the Secret\ also presents manipulative data. There are fewer Planned Parenthood clinics because hateful legislators have shut down clinics all over the south. Lastly, revenue IS going to increase because tens of thousands of women and families donated to Planned Parenthood in response to the relentless attacks on the organization by Republican lawmakers. in short, the website seems to address women in a way that is paternalistic and deeply misleading.
Very helpful on giving advice with parenting and also helped getting items needed for my baby from diapers to wipes.
