North Carolina pregnancy center plans to move next to abortion facility
The North Carolina pregnancy resource center A Hand of Hope has announced it is moving its office next to the Raleigh abortion facility A Preferred Women’s Health Center.
“We will be located right beside the abortion clinic, much like McDonald’s is across the street from Burger King,” Hand of Hope executive director Tonya Nelson Baker said. “It makes good business sense to go exactly where the people are that we’re trying to reach.”
Hand of Hope operates the Your Choice Pregnancy Clinic, which offers free pregnancy and sexually-transmitted infection testing, limited ultrasound services, and information on abortion, adoption, and parenting.
Dear Reader,
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.

Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.
Some area residents expressed fear the move would lead to an increase in pro-life protests outside the abortion facility, but Baker assured them that wouldn’t be the case: “Hand of Hope does not protest. It is against our policy and procedure to protest.” She also said they do not post people outside to lure people in.
The West Raleigh Citizens Advisory Council has voted 30-17 in favor of allowing the home Hand of Hope wants to be rezoned for office space. It now has to go before the Planning Commission and City Council.
A Preferred Women’s Health Center did not comment on their new pro-life neighbors.
