Here are some great links to help you keep and raise your baby. If you were interested in adoption and are now wanting to keep your baby, please leave a comment and I will try to assist you as much as possible, if these links do not help you.
If you find that any of these sites are not supportive, are demeaning, request it to be taken off of my list. If you have additional resources, please feel free to post.

Adoption Legalized Lies and Pregnancy Support
Before you sign adoption papers, send us an email or call ( 908 ) 751-4836. Our volunteers are adopted adults and natural mothers who have first-hand experience with adoption. They can tell you what to expect if you surrender your child.
Our organization can also help you to evaluate your options, consider adoption alternatives, and get off to a great start with your baby.
Housing Opportunities:
Co-Abode (Moms)
Be wary of housing of organizations that also push for adoption, as they are the revamped version of maternity homes. Once a resident, if you choose other than adoption, they will attempt to make you pay for it.
