WHO WE ARE
Every day we serve women without hope who feel they are out of options. Desperate for a quick fix for their perceived crisis, they turn to us for answers and support. The compassionate services we provide help open their eyes to the truth about the value of life – inside their womb and out – and many are empowered to choose life as a result.

Statistics show that if women have support even from just one person, they are much more likely to choose LIFE for their baby. At First Coast Women’s Services, our mission is to be the support system women need to feel empowered to choose life.
