What Are My Options?

abortion issuesParenthood
As an expectant mother you have a lot on your mind and a lot of questions you need answers to. Our caring staff will help to answer those questions and help you to make the important decisions in the early stages of your pregnancy.

Our first priority is making sure you and your child are healthy. We will refer you to medical services for a doctor, an ultrasound as well as STI testing.

Secondly our staff will help you to develop a “pregnancy plan.” A pregnancy plan will help you to plan how you will support your child, continue your education and prepare for parenthood.

We understand that this is not an easy decision and no client’s situation is the same. There are difficult factors such as your relationship with the father of your child, your family and other societal difficulties. We will work with you through your circumstances and together develop a positive path forward.

Adoption
If you are not ready to be a parent yet there are loving families waiting to give a child a great home.

The East Los Angeles Pregnancy Center has a partnership with several adoption agencies who will work with you to place your child with a family of your choice. We will connect you with a professional and caring adoption agency.

Considering Abortion?  
An abortion is a serious decision. If you are considering an abortion our staff can help you with abortion education and discuss your options with you so you can make an informed decision.

Before considering the various abortion procedures, it is recommended that you obtain a sonogram to determine if the pregnancy is viable (uterine, non-ectopic pregnancy) and for accurate pregnancy dating or gestation.
