Messages are treated confidentially and will not be published.
The phone service and counseling center offer you advice about your pregnancy and life situation.
As a support in the decision making process, you get information about various alternatives: about continuing the pregnancy, about interrupting the pregnancy or about the possibility of giving up your child for adoption. Information about the pregnancy itself and about the development of the fetus as well as about social support for families and single parents are also available.
If you are pregnant without a partner and you need long-time support, we will try to organize a support person for you, who will be around you during the pregnancy and the birth of the child. Feel free to come by and talk to us. Do not hesitate to come also if you already had an abortion and cannot get the thoughts off your mind.
All conversations are treated confidentially.

Open Café Thur 10-13
