Mission: The Mission of Real Alternatives is to provide life-affirming alternative to abortion services to assist women faced with crisis pregnancies. We accomplish this Mission by:(1) administering a statewide government funded alternative to abortion services program that funds pro-life social service agencies, pregnancy support centers, maternity homes, and adoption agencies, that provide counseling and material assistance; and,(2) educating other pro-life organizations throughout the country about government funded alternative to abortion services programs.By accomplishing this Mission, we seek to ensure that women facing crisis pregnancies receive support, achieve improved reproductive health, develop improved parenting skills, and receive adoption education, all of which will empower them to choose childbirth rather than abortion.
Programs: Real Alternatives administers that annual PA Department of Public Welfare statewide alternative to abortion services program. Through this statewide program, over 19,500 women at 83,000 appointments are served annually at 118 Real Alternatives funded centers. This unique program is also being exported to other states. Since 1996, over 150,000 women have been provided pregnancy support services in Pennsylvania.
