Tanisha's Story

When I found out I was pregnant, I was 19 years old. My boyfriend and I had just gotten into a huge argument and I was staying house-to-house trying to get stable. I felt hurt when I found out I was pregnant. I didn’t have a place of my own so I was thinking “How can I bring someone else on this earth?” I felt sad because my child’s father and I were not on good terms. I thought “How can I tell him?” It was just a mixture of emotions going on.

I came to Care Net because this lady told me how she got help from them and how sweet they were. I wasn’t working at the time. I needed help. When I came to Care Net, they listened to my problems as if they were their own problems. My counselor prayed with me and gave me a better understanding about the Bible. Also, she made me feel kind of like I had known her for years and that I could tell her anything. Care Net makes you feel loved. Since coming to Care Net, I have matured and have stopped letting things get the best of me. I now have my daughter and I am trying to make things work with my child’s father.

Jocelyn's Story

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.
