Because of You, Marisol Found Strength
We want you to meet Marisol, a young mom we’ve had the privilege of walking alongside this past year. But if you hadn’t intervened, Marisol’s story may have gone very differently.
“I was surprised when I found out that I was pregnant. I had two previous high-risk pregnancies that ended in loss, and was told I wouldn’t be able to have children. I was career-focused; I had a job working with the city and I wasn’t ready or expecting to have a child at the age of 30.
I felt a bit overwhelmed because I would be a first-time mom. I was an orphan myself without family support, so I wasn’t sure I could perform my best or know what to do to provide for my baby.
I experienced top-tier services at Alcove Health, free healthcare services, and tons of resources, including baby supplies and free maternity classes, which helped a lot. They provided me with postpartum and anxiety support through resources and someone to communicate with, without judgement.
Alcove Health has changed my life and helped me become a confident mom. They are the village that every mother needs.“

Zoey came to our clinic believing she was scheduling an abortion appointment. What she found instead was help, hope, and a life-changing outcome, for both her and her baby.
The abortion pill isn’t a decision—it’s a default. Hours matter. Your year-end gift helps Care Net Peninsula answer calls and offer same-day care.
