Hi there! Today is a almost a week since I arrived to the lifehouse. I have to admit that it hasn´t been easy, but I have really loved it.

It´s a real challenge counseling womens, parents or couples, trying to help them not only with the decision of continuing with the pregnancy and keeping their baby but also helping them to get Jobs and sometimes even figure out a way of graduating. Excatly this is what happened to a young couple that came the other day to the Brooklyn office, the girl hasn´t graduated from high school and his boyfriend needed a job. They are still working on the way they are going to help them, but Linda is trying to improve the situation of this young couple and make it a better place for a baby to come to this World.

I have been a couple of days in the Brooklyn office, where a lot of different girls come with really tough situations. The other day a women came with her one-year-old daugter and a possibly pregnant friend. This women come a year ago asking for help with her pregnancy and thinking on an abortion, the people in the center helped her and now she has a beautifull and loved daughter( the baby of the picture). Talking to this women was a great and enriching experience.

Write to you soon
