Our mission is to demonstrate Christ’s love by providing compassionate care and support to women, families, and caregivers facing emotional, physical, mental, and spiritual challenges during pregnancy and throughout parenthood.
Our Vision
Empowering women, men, families, and caregivers by addressing their spiritual, emotional, and physical needs through practical support, including prayer, education, peer counseling, and essential resources—ensuring compassionate care from pregnancy through parenthood.
The Medicine Hat Pregnancy and Family Support Society's Nurture Pregnancy Centre has provided a soft place to land for those experiencing challenges during and after pregnancy for over 35 years. The centre was founded in 1988 as a Christian non-profit, non-political, charitable organization which humbly began by administering pregnancy tests within a privately owned home. By 1990 the Centre was incorporated, and an office was established in the Community Resource Centre.
As the organization grew, so did our services offered. As soon as a donation room was created, it quickly began to overflow with items for expecting mothers, infants, and toddlers. The Centre began offering peer counselling and educational classes for clients. As the services and programs continued to expand, it became apparent that the Centre would need a larger space to operate in.
In 2013, the Centre relocated to its current location at 321 6th Ave. This building hosts an education room, resource room, living room, kitchen, boys and girls donation rooms, layette room, ample storage space and a spacious visiting area with a welcoming atmosphere. The new facility tremendously enhanced the ability for the Centre to fulfill its mission of demonstrating Christ’s love by assisting those facing challenges during and after pregnancy. Furthermore, our current location has opened up the potential for us to continue to grow.
