Adira Clinic assists with unplanned pregnancies
“Baby Vincent” was born in 2024 to one of Adira Clinic’s clients.
From there, McAnally said the clinic will help connect parents to other nonpro ts or organiza- tions to help them through the next steps of their parenting journey. “I really want to help our community and to help women understand the choices that they’re making and help them feel really educated,” McAnally said. “I just don’t want anyone to ever walk out and say, ‘I wish they would have told me,’ or ‘I wish I would have known more about this.’” The takeaway McAnally said she could see the clinic adding more medical services down the road; however, for now the nonpro t’s biggest aim is to help as many women as they possibly can.
Pregnancy Help Center of West Houston, a Christian-based nonpro t organization based out of Katy, rebranded Jan. 1 to the Adira Clinic after more than 35 years in the community. The organization, founded in March 1989 by a group of pro-life Christians, was rebranded to better represent its message and services, which is to empower women and provide life-a rming clinical care to women facing unexpected preg- nancies, Executive Director Kelli McAnally said.
