Background:

In Chattanooga in 1985, AAA Women’s Services was founded to offer life-affirming options to women in crisis pregnancies. In 2009, AAA changed its name to Choices to better reflect and communicate its purpose. The Chattanooga-based ministry seeks, in obedience to Christ, to lovingly influence women and men to choose life-giving alternatives for crisis pregnancies by communicating both God’s plan for sexuality and the sanctity of the lives of unborn children and by ministering to their physical, emotional, and spiritual needs. 

Ministry:

"We empower women and men facing pregnancy decisions to pursue abundant life in Christ." Thousands of people have been served at the ministry’s two centers over the years, as well as via Choices’ telephone “helpline” and the internet. Services offered include: free pregnancy testing, assistance with housing, confidential counseling, 24-hour hotline, post-abortion counseling, spiritual support, maternity clothes, baby clothes and equipment, educational ultrasounds, medical referral, childbirth and parenting classes, and men’s ministry. The main office is now located in the old Eastgate Mall area. The National Memorial for the Unborn is still located on Vance Road (in the very same building that once housed Chattanooga’s only abortion clinic).
