Starting last fall, a labor and delivery class was developed as an educational opportunity for clients at The Resource Center and now is open to the public! The class is offered quarterly and is a 3-week class that meets one time a week for an hour.

At The Resource Center, it is our desire that each client who walks through our doors feels comfortable and welcomed and leaves with the information and resources they need for their situation. Whether you are concerned about potential STDs, an unplanned pregnancy, needing abortion information, or happy to be pregnant, we are here for you!

Here at the Resource Center, we offer free care for both men and women facing unintended pregnancies, along with free STD testing. Call 970-353-2673 to schedule your FREE STD TEST appointment or peer-advising appointment with another man about a pregnancy. And in the meantime, here’s a post by a guy, for the guys.
