Compass Women's Care

Established in 1985, Turning Point Pregnancy Resource Center has provided pregnancy testing and limited ultrasounds so women can better understand their current health and available next steps.

If a woman believes she is pregnant, an ultrasound is a vital medical service, as it reveals important information about a woman's wellness and how long she has been pregnant.

"Turning Point has been through many changes since our inception in 1985,” Executive Director Carolyn Warziniack said. “We want women to know we are a place they can turn to without judgment. Our center aims to help clients step outside their crisis mindset and find truth."

Turning Point Resource Center is changing its name to Compass Women's Care.

"A compass represents many aspects of the work we do daily,” Warziniack said. “To help the women we serve navigate their situation and to help them find their true north."

Since 2012, what is now Compass Women's Care has been providing medical services to help women in Jackson navigate their pregnancy journey.

Under the medical supervision of Dr. Mary Girling, patients can receive confidential pregnancy testing, limited ultrasounds and educational resources regarding what options are available moving forward. A registered nurse presents all pregnancy options, including parenting, adoption and abortion.

"If a client decides to parent, we have educational classes during the pregnancy and up to 2 years of age,” Warziniack said. “Our clients earn material support and baby items as they participate and complete classes. If a client prefers to place a baby for adoption, we have three Wyoming adoption agencies to which we refer our clients. If a client chooses abortion, we do not refer or provide abortions. Our newest medical offering is post-abortion care, which our registered nurse provides." Compass Women's Care refers clients to additional resources in the community when needed.

For over 35 years, Compass Women's Care has been serving women and families facing an unplanned pregnancy in a place of safety, compassion and hope. Compass Women's Care was designed to provide top-notch medical services for women who need support and options.
