Option Line
The effort to provide alternatives to abortion continues to grow in effectiveness across the nation, and the thousands of pregnancy resource centers are increasingly joining forces to serve the needs of mothers and babies wherever they may live. One sign of such growing effectiveness is “Option Line,” which offers a nationwide toll-free hotline and a website, connecting people in need with the pregnancy resource center closest to their home. The number is 1-800-395-HELP and the website is www.OptionLine.org.
A simple step every parish can take toward saving lives is to put a link from their parish website to Option Line, and to place the phone number in the parish bulletin.
Option Line consultants refer each caller to a pregnancy resource center in her area for answers to questions about abortion, pregnancy tests, STD's, adoption, parenting, medical referrals, housing, and many other issues. The toll-free number is available to callers 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Callers from across the country can reach a trained, caring person and then be connected to a pregnancy resource center near them for one-on-one help. Option Line is a call center located in Columbus, Ohio, formed as a joint venture between Care Net and Heartbeat International.
Care Net and Heartbeat International are faith-based organizations that promote women's reproductive health by ensuring access to accurate information about all pregnancy options and the provision of positive alternatives to abortion. As a result of the free services and caring support offered by these organizations and the 1800 participating Option Line pregnancy centers across North America, more than 1,000,000 women are empowered each year to make positive reproductive choices.
