PREPARES – Pregnancy and Parenting Support – is an initiative of the Washington State Bishops to provide a nurturing response and promise to mothers and fathers who have chosen life. A promise of support and care from pregnancy to their child’s fifth birthday. Regardless of religious beliefs, this parish based program offers low-income families vital life affirming services.
