Providing care with Kindness, Courtesy, Justice, Love & Respect for over 45 years

Founded by LeRoy and Mary Lou Carhart, part of our mission is to provide comprehensive abortion care that recognizes the complexities of people’s lives and experiences in a compassionate, comfortable and personal environment. 

Committed to helping people who can become pregnant

We recognize the needs of each client as an individual while attempting to keep costs as affordable as possible. Every member of our team has pledged to make your experience with us one we would want for ourselves, friends, and family members. 

Specializing in 2nd & 3rd trimester abortion care

​We are one of the nation’s only clinics that provide abortion care throughout pregnancy, meaning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd-trimester abortion care. We actively recognize the need for the care we provide and are proud to serve our patients with comprehensive abortion care. 

IF YOU DECIDE TO END YOUR PREGNANCY, WE BELIEVE YOU DESERVE THE VERY BEST ABORTION CARE

What matters most to you?

Our team would like to assure you that we all work together to ensure that your medical information is safe and secure. We go to great lengths as abortion providers to keep your visit with us as private as possible.

As a minor, you have the right to privacy over your medical information. We will always keep your information safe and private. If you need help accessing abortion care, please contact us and we will provide as much guidance as you need.

Unfortunately, our clinics are often targeted by anti-abortion protesters. They often try to stop you or get in front of your car to hand you anti-abortion information. Please know that our team will never try to stop you from entering our clinic or parking lot.

At CARE, abortions are our specialty. It’s not a business, it’s personal. Our team understands and actively provides abortion care because we understand the importance of being able to determine your future and reproductive decisions. We are never booked and can almost always schedule you within a week, but often less. Some abortions require 2 or 3 days for completion. This is for the safety of your abortion and protect your ability to have future pregnancies to term without problems.

CARE is a member of the National Abortion Federation and as an approved member, we have access to loans and grants for people who qualify. Most funds require that you have an appointment prior to their approval. Our team member that makes your appointment will provide you with the contact information for abortion funds that you need.

CARE partners with Faith Aloud and the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice. If you would like to talk with a clergy person about your decision, please call us and let us know. We are happy to connect you to a member of the clergy.

There are many issues that must be addressed to ensure that you will be comfortable throughout your visit here. Although for many, when they think about comfort, physical pain is what immediately comes to mind; but it is really only one part. Yes, you will have some pain; however, most people describe the pain to be like intense “period cramps”. We do offer IV sedation for surgical abortions done in clinic. Our pledge is to care for every patient with kindness, courtesy, love, justice, and respect.

We are one of the nation's only abortion clinics who provide abortion care throughout pregnancy, meaning 1st, 2nd, and 3rd trimester abortions. Whether you are 5 weeks or 35 weeks, we are here to help you get your abortion.

Abortion care is what we specialize in. We provide abortions 6 days a week. We do not limit our schedule, and we do our best to schedule every patient. It is unusual that we cannot see you within 5 days or less. We must follow all state mandatory waiting periods. Please keep in mind that abortions later in pregnancy can require 2-4 days to allow your body to dilate and to ensure that the process is safe.

Each patient is given a private telephone number that will reach our doctors at any time. It is our belief that almost every “disaster” can be prevented if we don’t ignore the “little” problems that are often easily treatable. We encourage our patients and/or their support persons to call any time they are worried about anything.

Si tienes preguntas, necesitas información, o si gustas hacer una cita para obtener un aborto, nuestro personal está aquí para servirte. Contamos con personal bilingüe listo para ayudarte durante las horas de negocio.
