Genesis Pregnancy Support Inc.

Life Network Australia - Tuesday, March 16, 2010



Genesis is a pregnancy support service operating in Adelaide, SA.

Genesis provides assistance in the form of free pregnancy testing, telephone and face to face options counselling, grief and post abortion counselling. They offer confidential, caring, non-judgmental counselling through a dedicated team of trained volunteers.  These services are provided free of charge.

‘In-Sight’.   Their ‘In-Sight’ campaign is raising $50 000 for a portable ultra sound machine, that will enable them to offer free imaging.
 
‘ReBorn”.  This is a new second hand baby clothes shop that Genesis have recently opened to meet the needs of those women who are not totally unsupported, but who are still struggling financially.  They offer great quality clothing, books and toys at very cheap prices.  They are now open Monday to Friday from 10 am to 2 pm.

‘Material Assistance’.  Genesis also receives donations of baby goods (equipment, new baby clothes, nappies, wet wipes, blankets, etc) to pass on to people in need through the material assistance area.   Specific items needed right now for expecting Mums: Prams, Cots, Cot Sheets / Blankets, Change Tables, Bouncers, Disposable Nappies, and Baby Wipes.

‘Mummylink’ . Genesis also runs a number of educational programs including a Young Mum’s friendship and support group ‘Mummylink’.  This group provides a safe and friendly place for young mums to come together, connect with each other and find support in what can be such a challenging time in their lives.

‘Butterfly Wings’.  Genesis have acquired the license to run this valuable and effective Child Parent Program here in SA specifically to encourage positive interaction and nurturing between mother and baby.  They believe this profoundly stimulates young brains and forms the foundation of each child’s development through the love and security that parents can provide.  The program will be run in conjunction with Mummylink and held at alternate meetings. 

To find out more about Genesis, or to donate or volunteer, email genesispregnancysupport@msn.com or ring 08 8376 4100.
