Parenting Support in Colorado
Parenting is a lifelong commitment and comes with challenges, but it can also be incredibly rewarding. While the idea of providing for a child may feel difficult, support is available.
At Life Choices, we provide pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, parenting education, and material support, such as diapers, clothing, and formula. We can also inform you of other support options in Colorado.
Beyond our services, women who meet certain income requirements can also take part in Colorado programs. These can include Colorado Medicaid for prenatal and delivery care, the WIC program for nutrition assistance, and other community programs that provide housing, childcare, and ongoing support. With help, many women discover parenting is more possible than they realized.
Placing a Child for Adoption
If you know you’re not ready to parent but don’t want to choose abortion, adoption is an option. During an adoption, you carry your pregnancy to term while giving another family the opportunity to grow.
As the birth mother, you are in control of the adoption plan. You can decide whether you’d like an open adoption with ongoing contact, a semi-open adoption, or a closed adoption. Most adoptive families cover medical expenses not paid by insurance and, depending on state law, can assist with some living expenses during pregnancy.
Different Choices. Different Futures.
It’s important to take time to weigh your options carefully. Choosing parenting or adoption will lead you down very different roads. Which path do you want to take?
Ask yourself what future you see for yourself and your child, and think about how you would feel after making each choice.
At Life Choices, we’re here to provide information, resources, and support so you can make a confident, informed decision.
