CRISIS PREGNANCY COUNSELLING
Not all birth parents who have an unplanned pregnancy are in crisis. For some, however, this event does cause a crisis in their lives. Sunrise provides Crisis Pregnancy Counselling throughout the Province of British Columbia. We provide this service free to the public as part of our status as an organization dedicated to assisting birth parents with unplanned pregnancies.
Our Crisis Pregnancy Counselling provides compassionate support and information in a non-judgmental manner. Our office is staffed with professional counsellors.
BIRTH PARENT SUPPORT GROUP
Sunrise has a support group for birth parents. Many birth parents have found this connection to be helpful in normalizing their experience and feelings. Learning about and understanding the experience of others, who have been where you are, can be helpful in your process. Some birth parents have established lifelong connections.
