Our Frequently Asked Questions
You only help women who are pregnant and unwed, correct?
No. Birthright assists any woman, or man, who is looking for help and support with a pregnancy, regardless of age, marital status, race, religion or income.
Do I need to schedule an appointment?
No, walk-ins are welcome. However, we prefer that you call ahead so our volunteer will be ready when you arrive. This will assure that you will have the volunteer’s undivided time and attention. Our regular hours are listed on the homepage, and we are also available by appointment.
Do I need to bring anything?
You do not need anything for Birthright to help you. You do not need proof of citizenship, residence, income, or birth. If you are under 18, we do need to know your age.
How much do you charge?
All Birthright services are provided free of charge, regardless of your income level.
Do you perform abortions?
Birthright is not a medical facility and we do not perform or refer for abortions. To be helpful in making an informed decision we can, upon request, provide information about the abortion process.
Where are you located?
