Join Mary Peterson and guests as they share key insights into the different staffing models utilized in maternity housing.

A call comes in—It’s a local reporter, and she wants to know if your center gives out birth control. No? Well, don’t you receive funding through the state? Why should you be receiving a dime from the city council when you won’t even refer for abortions?

Questions like these can feel intimidating, but there’s a situation you should dread even more: radio silence. Good press relations is both proactive and reactive, and a well-written press release is an essential component to building credibility in your community to expand your reach to the woman near you who needs it most. Consider these questions and more—including who should be answering questions at your organization in the first place—with Heartbeat International’s former Director of Communications Jay Hobbs.

Intended for those in the dreaming or start-up phase, this workshop will provide foundational information related to key decision points in both the administrative and programmatic dimensions of operating a maternity home.

We expect some change in the culture over the years, but sometimes it seems as if the culture is shooting past in leaps and bounds - and not always in a direction we'd like. It can be appealing to step away and let the culture's changing values race past, but keeping a finger on the pulse is essential to our work and saving lives.
