Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Health, Health Care
Mission: For many women being pregnant is a time of joy, but for others, pregnancy, whether planned or unplanned, can be a time of fear, confusion or loneliness. It is a time when women need the support of others, a time when women need Birthright. Since 1971, Birthright of Rochester has offered free and confidential pregnancy support to any woman regardless of age, income or zip code. Our focus is on the distressed mother and her baby. Understanding that each situation is unique, Birthright mentors offer women non-judgmental support in a safe environment. We then work to identify the local resources necessary to help clients meet their immediate needs and achieve their future goals. Follow-up continues during pregnancy and up to the baby’s first birthday. Through our program, Birthright clients focus on growth through positive change, building a better life for their newborns and themselves.
