I love having the opportunity to spend time with other women who get what it’s like to be a mom doing it all on her own.

My past abortions were a source of tremendous shame and regret, and a secret that I kept tightly locked away. This group gave me a safe and confidential place to voice that pain and to acknowledge those pregnancies for the first time in my life.

“Thank you Northfield Women’s Center for everything. You helped me grow into a better parent. I know I wouldn’t be the parent I am today without your services and support.”

-Belinda

“My boyfriend and I went to the Women’s Center for help. We were both in high school and couldn’t imagine having a child at that time in our lives. They were very kind and did not pressure us in any way. They encouraged us to take time and not rush into a decision, which was the best advice. I can’t imagine life without my daughter today.”

“The Northfield Women’s Center helped me see that even as a single mom I could still dream and get my college degree. They helped me apply to schools and find resources for support. I will graduate from college in a few months and already have a great job waiting. I know I wouldn’t have done this if they hadn’t given me the push I needed to get started!”

-Courtney

“The abortion I had 27 years ago was the worst decision of my life. I hadn’t told anyone because I was so ashamed, not even my husband. The Women’s Center offers a program called Surrendering the Secret, which has changed my life. Today I am free of the horrible emotional pain I was dealing with and I’m so grateful I found them!”

-Tracey

“The Earn While You Learn program at the Women’s Center is amazing! I was going to school and working part-time so I couldn’t afford all the things I needed to help prepare for the baby. They helped me get everything I needed and I learned so much great information in the process. It was fun and they also were very caring and supportive when I needed to talk.”
