I'm Pregnant

Lutheran Social Services counsels more than 350 birth parents each year regarding their unplanned pregnancies.  With the support of a trained LSS counselor, birth parents receive practical information, emotional support, and guidance as they consider the life-changing options in front of them.  Whether their decision is to parent their child or make an adoption plan (see waiting families), LSS continues to support birth parents throughout their pregnancy, childbirth and beyond.

When you discover you are pregnant, many thoughts and feelings arise.  You need a place to turn where there is not judgment or unwanted advice.  That place is Lutheran Social Services.
