• 6 in 10 teens who have had sex, wish they had waited.

• Nearly half of pregnancies among American women are unintended, and 4 in 10 of these are terminated by abortion.

• On the basis of current abortion rates, 1 in 3 American women will have had an abortion by age 45.

With every step you take in the Walk for Alternatives, you will be joining hundreds of others in raising the funding needed for programs and services that make a difference for life.

You can lovingly Celebrate Life by walking or by supporting a walker, as together, we Walk for Alternatives.

Alternatives exists to care for Denver-area women and men in pregnancy-related crisis and offer them a meaningful alternative to abortion. Following the example of Christian love, we seek to meet emotional, physical and spiritual needs, enabling and encouraging women to choose life everyday.

Our FREE and confidential services include a 24-hour Helpline, pregnancy testing, ultrasound services, confidential consultation, adoption education, pre and post-natal medical care referrals, financial and legal assistance, post-abortion counseling, success development curriculum and abstinence education.
