Client Services
Our services are free and confidential:
Free Pregnancy Testing: The best way to find out if you are pregnant is to take a reliable pregnancy test. Ours are free, reliable and confidential. We can calculate your approximate due date. (You will be asked to provide a urine specimen).
Free Pregnancy Counselling: Our trained peer counsellors can answer many of your questions, or get the answers you need.
Mother's Closet: Our Mother's Closet has a wide selection of free maternity clothing, books, and videos and infant items-from clothing to baby furniture/items. We also provide emergency diapers, wipes and infant formula. Each new mother receives a gift layette when her baby is born.
Community Referrals: We can tell you about the many community resources available to you and your baby: We can refer you for medical, financial and social services, housing alternatives, birthing and nursing classes and much more.
Mentoring Classes: We encourage all our clients to participate in the mentoring classes. These are one on one DVD based classes that will help you learn about your baby and being a parent.
We Stand Beside You: Depending on your wishes, you may stay in contact with us during your pregnancy for the friendship and emotional and spiritual support we are eager to provide.
24 Hour Care-Net Hotline 1-800-395-HELP: Care Net is an organization of over 600 pregnancy centers in the United States and Canada. The trained volunteers who answer the hotline will speak with you immediately and at any time day or night about your pregnancy. Your call is free and confidential. The volunteers will ask you if you wish to make an appointment with a near-by pregnancy center peer counsellor.
Here's What Makes MAPC Special!
Why should you contact the Mountain Area Pregnancy Center when you have other options?
Most women, when faced with the anxiety of an unplanned pregnancy, tell a friend first. Even before the news to the father of the child or a parent, women tend to confide in a trusted female friend.
Please consider choosing the relationships and resources available to you at the Mountain Area Pregnancy Center. Here's why?
Women who visit MAPC find ALL the accurate, complete information they need to make an informed decision about their pregnancy. YOU have the RIGHT to know all the facts.
You are not a paying client at the Mountain Area Pregnancy Center. Our services are free. We do not make money on your decision.
We care. That sounds trite in this era of marketing clichés, but you'll see what we mean. Your peer counsellor is just that: a peer --- a woman just like you who has probably experienced an unplanned pregnancy herself. The staff and volunteers at MAPC are willing to help you in many practical ways, as well as emotionally and spiritually throughout your pregnancy and afterwards. We will even match you up with one of our volunteer mentors.
