Pregnancy can create a crisis situa
tion whether the mother is 1G and
unmarried, 25 and financially unable
to support another child, or 35 and
concerned about birth defects, the
director of the Lincoln Crisis Preg
nancy Center said Saturday.
Sandy Reimers said she founded the
center because Lincoln has no other
place for a pregnant woman with
emotional and psychological problems
to go for help.
The center, which will open May 21
in Gold's Galleria, Suite 29, will offer
counseling to the woman and her hus
band or boyfriend during the first
three months of the pregnancy, Reim
ers said.
Abortion is not considered an alter
native for the woman, Reimers said,
but the center will give post-abortion
counseling to women who have prob
lems dealing with an abortion per
formed elsewhere.
During the second trimester of preg
nancy, the center will provide parent
ing classes. Reimers said many women
do not know how to handle the parent
al situation. The center will teach them
how to work through the problems
they may face.

pregnancy, the center will teach Lamaze
classes for unwed mothers. It also will
give individual counseling to help them
plan for the future.
Counselors discuss adoption with
each of the mothers to help them make
decisions they will not regret years
later, Reimers said.
In addition, the center will provide
"shepherding homes" for young women
who were kicked out of their homes by
angry parents. Providing friendship
for young women is an important role
for the center's counselors, Reimers
said. Many adolescents become isolat
ed from their friends and are lonely,
she said.
Help does not stop after the birth,
Reimers said. The center will have a
hot-line number that new mothers can
call 24 hours a day, seven days a week
to get help or just talk to someone,
Reimers said. A trained counselor will
answer the phone at all times, she said.
"Having someone to talk to helps a
lot," Reimers said.
Peer-level support groups also will
be a part of the program, Reimers said.
The center will provide the mother
with maternity clothes, baby clothes
and baby furniture, Reimers said. Free
pregnancy tests also will be provided.
Beginning May 14, the center will
sponsor a training program for people
interested in counseling at the center,
Reimers said. The learning sessions
will continue Monday through Friday
from 7 p.m. to 10 p.m. at Grace Com
munity Evangelical Church, C813 South
St. The class also will meet Saturday
from 9 a.m. to noon, she said.
Reimers said the class is for anyone
interested in crisis counseling, not just
for people who will work at the center.
There will be a $20 fee for the materials
used in the class, she said.
Reimers said the center's services
are free to everyone because the coun
selors will volunteer their time.
