“If there is anyone that needs help or don‘t know where to start when having a baby I always send them to Hope Clinic that is my first choice and I always will be.”

“From that moment onward, we were wrapped in love from every direction…The work of Hope Clinic cannot be described easily. Of course, there are the very practical ways they help with classes, counseling and material assistance. But then there are the intangible ways in which they deliver hope as well.“

“It is so rewarding, now, to know that me making the right choice led me to here where I am at in life right now. For the first time in my life, I’m happy. Truly, truly happy!“

“Hope Clinic was there with unbiased help and support. They’ve helped me through tough decisions without judgement. I joined the Bridge Program. Counseling and mentoring has helped me heal as a person and a mother.”

“The staff welcomed me with warm smiles, so eager to meet my needs. I talked to the staff and told them about my life, the depression I had been dealing with, but also my resolve to carry this baby to term. They treated me like I was family, so concerned about my kids, my life, our health and my unborn child. My baby boy is due October 2nd…Hope Clinic is just what the name says …… Hope.“

If Considering Abortion, Ask Yourself These Questions:

What were my beliefs about abortion before I got pregnant?
How does abortion fit with my values?
Is abortion a decision I could live with long-term? How will it affect my future choices? My future relationships?
What is influencing my decision? Do I have any form of a support system?
Is someone pressuring me to have an abortion?

No matter your decision, we will always be here for you. Remember, you are not alone.

What is the abortion law in Tennessee?

As of August 25th, 2022, it is illegal for any physician to provide or prescribe for an abortion procedure or medication in the state of Tennessee. There is a legal affirmative defense given the physician’s good faith judgement to protect the physical life of the mother. This most commonly refers to rare circumstances such as an ectopic pregnancy. No pregnant woman can be criminally charged for performing or attempting to perform an abortion for herself.

What is the Morning After Pill/Plan B One-Step Pill?

It is essentially a large dose of birth control in one pill and must be taken within 24 hours of unprotected sex to be most effective. It is not an abortion pill and therefore does not cause a miscarriage or abortion.

Does Hope Clinic offer abortion services?
