Dear Birth Mother,

         An unplanned pregnancy can be difficult in the best of circumstances. If you are experiencing a crisis pregnancy, contact our caseworkers immediately so that we can assist you promptly and compassionately to insure the health of you and your baby. Even though most of the issues addressed here will be geared for the birth mother, CCS offers the same services for birth fathers who are exploring the option of adoption for their child.

         There are many options for you and there are decisions before you that will cause you to fear you are choosing unwisely. Many young women have been exactly where you are now and have learned and matured from this experience and their lives are now productive and stable. Others have had more difficulty in decision making and have experienced other problems or even another crisis pregnancy.

         Right now your past does not matter. What matters most is what you will do in the future. There is hope that your choice can be the right one this time. God bless you as you begin this journey.
