We’re Here for You: Resources in the Triad to Empower New Moms

At The Pregnancy Network, we are glad to offer services and resources to empower you to face your unplanned pregnancy without fear. We offer free pregnancy tests, limited ultrasounds, STD testing and treatment, educational classes, and material resources. We also offer the Connect program— a great opportunity to build relationships and a support network. 

In addition to the free services we provide, we offer information on other community resources we trust to meet your needs if we can’t. These organizations assist with things like OB/GYN care, housing, food, jobs, and counseling. We’ve compiled a list of resources in the Triad to help you prepare for your pregnancy. Make an appointment with us today to get started. We’d love to walk with you as you take your first steps. 

Medicaid for Pregnant Women (MPW)

Medicaid for Pregnant Women covers costs related to pregnancy. This includes: prenatal care, childbirth classes, family planning services, and more. North Carolina has an online application system called ePASS. Learn more about MPW in both Guilford County and Forsyth County.

Women, Infants, and Children (WIC)

The WIC Program aims to safeguard the health of low-income women, infants, and children up to age 5 who are at nutritional risk by providing nutritious foods to supplement diets. The program also provides information on healthy eating and referrals to health care. This program is available in both Guilford County and Forsyth County.

Nurse Family Partnership

In this program, women who are pregnant with their first child are paired with registered nurses (RNs). This nurse educates, encourages, and supports each mother throughout the first two years of motherhood. This in-home care is free, both before and after your child is born.

Adopt-A-Mom

The Adopt-A-Mom program coordinates prenatal care for low to medium-risk pregnant women who are not eligible for Medicaid. It also provides care for women who do not have private insurance or cannot afford to pay out of pocket for care. There are many participating OB/GYN practices in Guilford County who help make sure all women have access to prenatal care.

Women are asked to pay a $100 participation fee if able. Doctors, sponsors, and donations help cover any remaining costs.
