"When I realized I was pregnant, I had no option. Like, I don’t know where to go, who to ask for help… He started to isolate me… and was pressurizing me to abort the baby.”

“I didn’t know where to turn. That’s pretty much how I ended up coming to the Pregnancy Care Centre. I needed to speak about my emotions and my feelings, what I would do…I really had absolutely no idea.”
