Pregnancy Support Services (PSS)

An unplanned pregnancy can be a very difficult time. Expectant parents feel unsure, frightened, and alone. PSS caseworkers can assist expectant mothers and fathers in making the decisions that are critical to their futures and the life of their child. Our professional caseworkers in Wisconsin provide confidential counseling from a caring perspective at no cost. Our PSS Program has helped more than 2,400 women since 1984.

Services provided by PSS include:

Parenting

Be the best parent you can be . . . with a little help from a friend. If you choose to parent your child, we can assist you in a number of ways. PSS will include the father of the baby for counseling if desired and appropriate. A caseworker can be reached on a 24-hour basis in an emergency. Free pregnancy testing is available with an appointment at the New Berlin location. Housing with a licensed, caring family may be available during pregnancy at our House of Hope in Hartford, if needed. Temporary infant care available in licensed, loving homes. Post-abortion counseling is available.  Assistance is provided in locating childbirth and parenting classes and other resources.

A special incentive program offers beautiful baby clothing and accessory items, sometimes baby furniture and also personal gifts for women to motivated clients. This program, designed by the caseworkers, encourages and challenges the birth mother during her days of waiting, and is called "Fruits of Your Labor."

Adoption

Widen the circle of love for your child to include a waiting couple, family, or individual. If you choose to place your child for adoption, you'll be able to make important decisions about your child's future. You'll be able to select the right family for your child from personally designed profiles that include a variety of pictures, some information about the family, and written letters to the birth mother and father. You can meet with the prospective parent(s) who will honor the responsibility for your child's future. All adoptive families are committed to raising children in a loving home.  Click here to view some of our loving families.  Additional families can be seen at your local office.  Contact us by phone at 1-800-686-3232 or by email
