Unplanned Pregnancy Program

If you find yourself with an unplanned pregnancy and are considering making an adoption plan for your child, LSS staff will help you explore the choices and provide counsel and support.

This includes:

	individual counseling at no cost to birthparents or family
	mutual support from others who have faced and dealt with an unplanned pregnancy
	assistance in finding community resources

Should an adoption choice be made, LSS offers unique possibilities to place the child in an adoptive home.

If circumstances permit, birth parents may:

	participate in the final choice of adoptive parents for your baby
	spend time with your baby after the birth
	name your child on the original birth certificate
	stay in touch through letters and pictures after your baby is placed
	meet the adoptive family, if they agree
	obtain continued counseling after placement

The LSS staff do not judge or pressure participants. They are available to help review choices so expectant mothers can make decisions that are best for them, the baby and the baby's father.

For more information, please e-mail Andrea Farrell or phone her at (800) 938-5777.
