As one Bethany client shared: “My pregnancy counselor was fabulous and helped me look at what my heart and mind were telling me. She helped me look at all of my options equally."
Supporting New Mothers in Recovery
When a woman is struggling with addiction and facing an unexpected pregnancy, it’s easy for her to feel hopeless and alone. That’s why Bethany meets these women where they are, in recovery and preparing to give birth. Helping new mothers recover from substance use is a critical part of our mission.
