Our Support Services
You’re not on this journey alone! At Options, we walk alongside you throughout pregnancy and beyond. It’s important to us that you know all of your options, and we offer a variety of services, classes, and programs so that you are well equipped and empowered to make healthy decisions.
Foundations of Fatherhood Classes
We offer community based classes for both new and expectant fathers. Through these sessions, you can expect to learn positive parenting behaviors, activities that promote healthy child development, and strategies for effective co-parenting.
Prenatal and Parenting Education
We are here to support you through pregnancy and beyond. At our center we have the Earn While You Learn program to teach the knowledge and skills you will need for the future.
Adoption Referrals
Regardless of the parenting option you choose, investigating adoption is a mature and responsible decision. You can take your time, because exploring adoption requires no commitments – and in most states adoption cannot be legally finalized until after the baby is born.
Options Education
You have time to learn about your pregnancy options and to explore what is right for you. Our trained staff will listen to your thoughts and concerns as we walk this road together.
Abortion Education
Abortion is a medical procedure. You owe it to yourself to get complete and accurate medical information. If you’re considering an abortion, you have a legal right to be fully informed before making any decision.
IMPACT Program
This program helps to answer many of the questions you have and ease your anxiety. With each session you complete, you can earn credits for baby supplies and other materials. We are here to support you and help you learn to be the best parent you can be!
Sexual Health Education
At Options for Women | Mankato we care about you and encourage you to get evidence-based education before making decisions about your sexual health. We offer support and evidence-based education on pregnancy options, STD/STIs, sexual health, relationships, and parenting from our trained staff.
