I first went to Care Net to get my first ultrasound to confirm that I was pregnant. [Later] I was informed about their parenting program and I immediately signed up. I learned so much thanks to the classes I took and received many necessities for my daughter, Callie, from clothes to blankets, and even a diaper bag. I benefited from the classes, especially since I was a first-time mom. While I was pregnant Care Net even helped me out with maternity clothes. My daughter is a year old and I am still able to call my counselor at Care Net if ever I am in need. I have come to think of my [client advocate] as a counselor and mentor because I know I can always call her just to talk to her about issues or problems I may be having in my life. I greatly recommend Care Net for anyone who is pregnant, especially for first-time moms. I am so thankful and grateful for everything that they have done for me and my daughter.
Jocelyn came into our centers in 2012 to get an ultrasound when she was just 10 ½ weeks along. Care Net not only helped her through her pregnancy decision but walked with her through her entire pregnancy and after. She received ultrasound services, counseling services, and material support through Care Net. Pictured is Jocelyn and her 1-year-old daughter, Callie, at the 2014 Walk4Life.

The couple was quiet, but not upset. There were some tears, but not of despair, more of awe. Later, as I thought about it, it seemed to be a sacred awe. One that feels like fear, but weighs like a privilege.
