A service of Catholic Charities' Family & Children's Ministries
Since its inception in 1920, service to women, children and families have been a major focus for Catholic Charities. While over the years the services have evolved to meet the changing needs of our communities, pregnancy counseling is still one of the oldest components of services offered.
Pregnancy counseling helps individuals develop tools for good decision making. Birth parents carefully explore all their options and make a thoughtful and appropriate plan for their baby.
Those who choose adoption receive support and legal assistance through the process of termination of parental rights, infant foster care, choosing, meeting and beginning a relationship with the adoptive parents and placing the baby with them.
Catholic Charities advocates and practices open adoption. Our clients choose the adoptive parents and develop with them a plan to implement their mutual decisions regarding their ongoing relationship.
Those who choose to parent receive assistance in making many decisions and plans about co-parenting, school, work, housing and child care. They may choose to be involved in Catholic Charities’ Parenting Support Program.
Additional services include Pre-Natal Care Coordination, Parenting Support Services, and our Grandparents as Parents support groups.
