Crisis Pregnancy Center

New Crisis Pregnancy Center comes to Rabun offering CHOICES

New to Clayton and the surrounding areas is Choices – A Crisis Pregnancy Center offering guidance for young women and men who are facing an unexpected pregnancy and feel afraid and overwhelmed. The counselors will guide each client with confidential and professional support. They offer information and facts about the options available to you. The founder of this center is not new to this type of service, Carla Wright has experience establishing similar centers while living in a neighboring state. “I recognized a need for a crisis pregnancy center here but didn’t feel the time was right. After extensive prayer I know the time is now. I will step into this calling with a longing to help those facing these hard decisions. I want to come alongside them and share what I have learned and be there for them.” Carla told me in a recent interview. Many women feel hopeless and unable to make sound decisions, Choices will offer experienced counselors and other aid for women before and after their decision is made.

Choices is in the beginning stages and while the ball is rolling they are looking for community support. We would ask that you ruminate on what you might have to offer in the way of donations of your time, resources, and most importantly your prayers. The center is not affiliated with any church or denomination. The center is an affiliate of Heartbeat International, www.heartbeatinternational.org All services are free and confidential. They are in the process of attaining their 501c3 status, establishing by-laws and selecting board members and volunteer staff who will assist in leading the organization.

The center has established and will continue to forge affiliations with groups and individuals enabling them to provide resources for those facing pregnancy in less than ideal situations. “We want to be there for them, so they are not facing this alone. We also want to offer free pregnancy testing, and classes for those who choose to keep their child and guidance and continued counseling for those who choose adoption. We will also offer confidential post abortion counseling for those who may have felt they had to make that decision and now struggle with the aftermath even if it has been many years ago. Any unexpected pregnancy can be life altering and difficult. We look forward to holding an information meeting and speaking in public gatherings in the near future. Carla is ready to take calls for those in need so don’t wait, call today because she is someone who cares.

Choices is currently seeking a brick and mortar location, volunteers, donors and community support. We are a non-profit Christian organization. If you are interested in joining this effort please e-mail choicesrabun2021@gmail.com or call Carla Wright at 706-490-4641.
