There are no easy answers when you are facing a pregnancy for which you are unprepared either emotionally, financially, or socially.

If you are in this situation, we're glad you've found In Shifra's Arms: Jewish Unplanned Pregnancy Assistance.

Only you can make choices about your future. No one can or should make those choices for you. However, the support that is available to you is going to affect your choices and how you view your situation. Whether you are leaning towards parenting, adoption or abortion or just don't know what to do- we invite you to call us.

No matter how difficult your circumstances are, we are here to listen as you think through your options and offer help and support for overcoming the challenges you might face during your pregnancy and after birth.

We will treat you with kindness, care, and respect no matter what you decide (parenting, adoption abortion) and throughout your decision process. You can call whether you are seeking short-term information or longer-term support. All calls are confidential.

If you are not yourself pregnant, but are concerned about a partner, friend or family member who is struggling, we are happy to share information with you to pass on to her.
