An abortion can be a traumatic experience for some women, and maybe that is your story, and you don’t want another abortion. You have two other pregnancy options: parenting and adoption.
In this blog, we explore your other pregnancy options so you can feel equipped to make a confident and informed decision. We know you probably have many questions about what’s next for you. At Hands of Hope, we’re here to support you with information about your options.
Can I Really Parent?
Parenting may seem impossible when looking too far into the future. Try taking it step by step and learning what parenting may look like. Every parent’s journey is unique, and that’s ok. Are you wondering:
- Who will support me and my child financially?
- Will my partner and family support me?
- What if I’m still in school/college?
- Is childcare expensive?
- What free parenting resources are available?
It’s important to consider these pressing questions and find answers before making your final pregnancy decision.
At Hands of Hope PRC, we offer parenting resources and support through a video-based curriculum to help women (and their partners, if desired) who are seeking some help with the parenting process. We can also provide referrals to community resources.
What is Adoption Like?
You have more than one adoption option to choose from, but you have three: open, semi-open, and closed adoption. Each one varies based on the type of relationship you want to form with your child and the adoptive family.
Some women need privacy due to safety concerns, while others want to continue a relationship with their child for the long run. Go through all your adoption options and get your many questions answered with our team at Hands of Hope PRC today.

You don’t have to feel the weight of a pregnancy decision alone—we’re here to help. Our compassionate team is here to walk with you and offer free parenting and adoption resources and information.
