FREE Pregnancy Testing
If you think you’re pregnant, it’s important to have your pregnancy confirmed. Our lab-quality pregnancy testing will confirm whether a hormone created by pregnancy is present in your urine.
When you are pregnant you have several options. It is difficult to make these decisions when you are under stress and feeling overwhelmed. You may think that suddenly your life is spinning out of control. This is the time to talk with someone who can objectively give you the information you will need to make the best decision. At Hope you won’t find anyone judging you or telling you what to decide. We’re here to help you and we don’t make any money off your decision.
We also provide verification of pregnancy that can be used for Badgercare and WIC application.
FREE STD Testing and Treatment
We offer free testing for Gonorrhea, Chlamydia, HIV, Syphilis and Trichomoniasis to female clients. Limited treatment is available based upon results.
There are about 20 million new STDs in the United States each year and young people, between the ages of 15 and 24 account for half of all new STDs. In 2012, gonorrhea rates were highest among adolescents and young adults with the highest rates among women aged 20-24 years and 15–19 years. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that there are more than 110 million STIs among men and women in the US. This includes both new and existing infections.
Abortion Information
No matter which decision you make, it will affect the rest of your life. Depending on how far along you are in your pregnancy, abortion may not be just a simple procedure. If you are considering abortion, we can offer you a factual, medically accurate education on each type of procedure. Prior to having an abortion, it is critical to know how long you have been pregnant and to have the viability of your pregnancy confirmed. As with any medical or surgical procedure, finding out how it is done, the risks, and the side effects is important. Take the time you need to be fully informed before you decide.
Hope does not offer abortion services or abortion referrals.

We offer free three-day retreats known as Deeper Still for women and men. Retreats run from Friday afternoon through Sunday afternoon.
