VISION
Pregnancy & Parenting Support of San Luis Obispo County (PPSSLO) serves as an advocate for healthy mothers and families, empowering mothers, fathers and families through education and information. As a first stop resource for assisting with a pregnancy, birth and infant development, PPSSLO provides an important safety net for local women, their infants and families during pregnancy and for a year after birth. The client staff relationship is built on trust developed through careful listening, acknowledging and tending closely to a client’s concerns and needs.

Services include classes and support groups as well as practical support items for pregnancy and early child care and referrals to community resources to meet the needs of all clients.
