How We're Different
Every woman going through a life-changing transition needs support. An unexpected pregnancy is no different. Many services fulfill physical needs; both medical and financial support are necessary and extremely valuable. But after she walks out the door, oftentimes she's left to walk the nine month journey alone. That's where The Avi Project is different! Each woman is provided an advisor and confidante equipped with all the resources, education, and emotional tools to support her. |

The Avi Project creates partnerships with organizations and individuals who have the resources to provide the necessary support our clients need to have a healthy pregnancy and a fruitful future. With their support, we can deliver the physical, emotional, and spiritual needs and even a little pampering these women so appropriately deserve.
"The distress of an unplanned pregnancy can catapult a woman into crisis mode: heightened anxiety, a sense of isolation, and feeling overwhelmed. The Avi Project walks with these women showing them they are loved, not alone, and that they have a bright future. I am inspired by this beautiful mission and am thrilled to be a part of it ." -Kathleen Widlund, MA, Licensed Professional Counselor |
