The Pregnancy Help Center of Slidell
Hope Begins Here:
THE PREGNANCY HELP CENTER OF SLIDELL

Since 1986, the Pregnancy Help Center has offered hope and life-affirming care to women facing unplanned pregnancies. More than 35,000 women and babies have received support through free pregnancy tests, medical referrals, maternity and baby supplies, counseling, and help with housing, education, and job resources— all at no cost.
At its core, the Center exists to remind every woman of her worth, value, and ability to choose life with confidence. By partnering with local organizations and churches, the Center creates a web of care that supports mothers, babies, and families.
From this mission, two dynamic outreach programs were born: Passion4Purity and SpeakHope.
Healing Through Hope: Passion4Purity & SpeakHope
Passion4Purity (Passion4Purity.org) focuses on guiding the next generation in identity, purity, and healing. SpeakHope (SpeakHope. net) supports women who have faced abuse, trafficking, or sexual violence, especially those pregnant due to trauma. SpeakHope connects women with safe places, justice resources, and long-term recovery.
These programs also raise awareness in churches, schools, and civic organizations, equipping communities to respond to those at risk with compassion and action.
“We started as a group of neighbors wanting to bring the love of Jesus to women in crisis,” says founder Cynthia Collins. “Our mission is to serve with unconditional love—both inside and outside the womb.”
Over the years, countless lives have been changed—not only for the women served but for the volunteers who serve alongside them. Many bring their own stories of healing, creating a space where shared experience leads to deep connection and restoration.
“Serving others becomes part of our own healing,” Collins shares. “Hope rises when we walk through pain together.”
Sharing Redemptive Beauty
Collins tells this story of healing in her book, “Redemptive Beauty: Healing the Layers,” gifted to every woman who comes to the Center. She also shares messages of hope through the SpeakHope podcast, blog, and live events known as Redemptive Beauty Gatherings.
A survivor and international speaker, Collins brings light to topics like childhood trauma, harmful relationships, and generational healing, encouraging others to step into freedom and purpose.
You Can Help
The Pregnancy Help Center is fully community-funded and receives no government support. Every gift directly helps women and families in crisis—and fuels generational healing.
