Maternity Homes Expand Nationwide Post-Roe v. Wade

With over 450 facilities, many faith-based, maternity homes are providing crucial support for low-income pregnant women.

  • The number of maternity homes has grown by 23% since Roe v. Wade was overturned.
  • Many homes are interconnected with anti-abortion counseling centers and faith-based organizations.
  • Modern maternity homes aim to avoid the coercive practices of the past, focusing on long-term support.
  • Economic factors like inflation and housing costs are driving the need for these facilities.
  • Critics argue that support should not be contingent on the decision to carry a pregnancy to term.
