The Valdosta Chamber hosted a ribbon cutting for the administrative office for Options Now, located at 2203 Nort Oak Street.

Options Now is the largest medical pregnancy clinic located within south-central Georgia and one of only found in the lower fifth of the state. Since 1991, this ministry has provided services to more than 12,000 women and families and performed 15,131 pregnancy tests and 6,358 ultrasounds. Most notable are the recorded 3,342 babies born to abortion-minded or abortion-vulnerable women, 490 salvations, 40 recommitments to Christ, and 53 adoptions.

The new space next to the clinic has allowed Options Now to have space for things such as development, marketing, and accounting. “The change allows for additional appointments and designated space for coaches to meet with the patient's partner,” said Community Relations Director Shelly Wright. “The potential growth could be over 200 each year as God enlarges our territory, which enables Options Now to expand programs and services.”

Options Now are involved in the community through education, networking, sharing the Gospel, and providing care to women and men. Wright says that “Options Now is impacting our community for Christ – planting seeds for true transformation.”

In the future, they hope to expand to medical and support services further while providing an expanded sanctuary that promotes abundant life within families.

Options Now is a nonprofit ministry that has been serving the community for 31 years. All of our services are free of charge. We offer Pregnancy tests, Limited Obstetrical ultrasounds, STI testing for females, parenting classes, and male mentoring opportunities.
