Education
The Life Center
The Blue Ridge Life Center exists to provide pregnancy support for parenting patients who confirm their pregnancy through our medical clinic by supporting them practically and emotionally through education and resource support.
Pregnancy Support
Many people who want to parent may have questions and concerns about parenting, continuing their education, financial stability, and other topics. We can help address your parenting concerns and help you find the resources you need.
Pregnancy and Life Skills Classes (PLS)
Once your pregnancy is confirmed through our medical clinic and you have decided to parent, you will have the option to attend our Pregnancy and Life Skills Classes (PLS). These classes are more than a resource for education; rather, they’re a safe place to connect with others in similar seasons. We also provide practical support, such as boutique items, diapers/wipes for baby’s first year of life (12 pick-ups – once/month), and a baby shower, to help offset the finances that come with having a baby.
Our teachers are made up of an array of medical professionals, and we also have volunteer mentors from the community in attendance who are there to support and equip you.
If you are interested in attending our PLS classes, please let your patient advocate know during your medical appointment or call us at (434) 528-4321.
