What About The Other Pregnancy Centres I Hear About?
Unfortunately many pregnancy centres and resources advertised in public may seem like supportive pro-choice abortion resources, but in reality they have an underlying pro-life or religious stance. While these groups promise to provide full information about all pregnancy options, research has shown that many Pregnancy Care Centres can misinform, mislead, and manipulate clients seeking abortion.
If you get pregnant and want to carry the fetus? Awesome! If you get pregnant and want to seek an abortion? Rock on! What’s important is that you get the care and support you need in whatever decision you choose, and that is why we recommend the Pro-Choice Society and the Lethbridge Sexual Health Centre for support in our community.
Accessing Abortion Services?
If you are looking to access abortion services, we recommend contacting The Pro-Choice Society of Lethbridge & Southern Alberta. Through them, you can be referred to an awesome pro-choice queer-affirming doctor who will ensure you get the medical treatment you want!
