Abortion & Abortion Recovery
If you’ve had an abortion, you already know it can be a traumatic experience. Maybe you felt like you had no other option. Just know this: This is not the end of your story.
Abortion (termination of the pregnancy)
Bottom line, abortion is the termination of your pregnancy.
Our trained client advocates and nursing staff are available to discuss with you any questions you may have regarding having an abortion, barriers to continuing a pregnancy, as well as abortion procedures and risks associated with abortion.
There are medical and surgical abortion procedures. The types of abortion that may be available depend on factors such as how far along you are in your pregnancy.
There are many things to consider. It’s important for you to determine what is best for you, now and in the future. You have a right to get all the facts. Take the time you need to equip yourself to make your best decision, a decision you will live with for the rest of your life.
When you are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy, we understand you may consider all of your options: parenting, adoption and abortion. It is important to understand that abortion is a medical procedure. As with any medical procedure, you should gather all of the information about the procedure, risks, and side effects associated with it.
While we prefer to hear your story and unpack your options in person, we realize you may want to gather some information before coming in to see us. At Hope Clinic, we can discuss each of these options with you; even though we do not perform nor refer for abortions. We hope to educate, inform and equip you as you make your choice.

- Abortion Pill

While we do not perform or refer for abortions, we are here to help you understand all your options so that you can make an informed decision. It is your pregnancy, your right to know, and your decision. We are committed to providing you with the knowledge and caring support you need to make an informed decision. Contact us today to schedule an appointment for options counseling.
There are probably a million thoughts going through your mind right now. What about my future? How will I ever go to college or continue college? I just found the perfect job. Is this going to ruin it? Should I keep it? Terminate? This wasn’t supposed to happen. What will my parents think? Who is the father? What will he think? Who is the father? What will my husband think? We see women in all kinds of different circumstances.
Terminating your pregnancy is a monumental decision and you need to be fully informed about what’s happening to your body, your medical rights, and abortion options. Abortion is a medical procedure and should be taken into consideration as such. You wouldn’t go to the dentist to get a tooth pulled without knowing exactly what the dentist is going to do, would you? The same principle applies here. You need to know exactly what abortion procedures are, the risk, and the physical and emotional impact. Although we do not offer abortion services, we feel that it is important to empower and educate women with knowledge about their pregnancies and their bodies. But, at the same time, love on these women while communicating their options in a judgment-free zone. We all deserve love.
