Emerson is a 17-year-old who faced an unintended pregnancy in high school.

She felt embarrassed and scared when she saw a positive pregnancy test at home.

Emerson did not know where to turn for help.

She did not want to stress her family out about this news, but she told them.

Emerson’s family reacted negatively to the news that Emerson was pregnant.

Emerson searched on the internet for information about getting an abortion.

She clicked on a Heroic Media ad that led her to call a Pregnancy Help Center that partners with Heroic Media.

Emerson spoke with a receptionist on the phone for a few minutes before agreeing to come in for an appointment.

Emerson met with a peer counselor, and felt comfortable with opening up about her concerns.

She did not want to disappoint her family, and she shared that she has a sister who also faced an unexpected pregnancy as a teenager.

She decided she wanted to parent her baby. Praise God!
