Whether you’re thriving or facing challenges during pregnancy or during postpartum, this guide introduces resources.

Social and health challenges are common. You do not need to have a problem or concern to learn about resources. For more information, ask your health care team or a Thriving Hearts Community Health Worker!

Access to Food and Infant Feeding Support
WIC provides food for eligible mothers during pregnancy and postpartum, as well as providing infant feeding support. SNAP is another source of food for qualifying families. We can help with applications. Food pantries provide high-quality food for you and your family. Farmers markets, churches, and community spaces often offer fresh or packaged food. Learn more at foodbankcenc.org or call 919-875-0707.

Hygiene Products
Diapers, wipes, menstrual pads, and adult incontinence supplies can be expensive. If you have extras, consider donating them. Many programs help distribute these essential products to those in need. Explore www.ncdiaperbank.org/need-help.

Legal Rights
Legal aid programs are available. You may be eligible for free legal help. To learn more about your rights, such as with housing, nutrition and disability benefits, and health insurance, check out legalaidnc.org or ask your health care team or Thriving Hearts Community Health Worker to make a referral. Services are confidential.

Mental Health
Everyone should have access to mental health support, regardless of their current situation. Whether it’s talking about your feelings, connecting with others, or taking medication if advised, mental health resources are there for you. You do not need a diagnosis to take steps to heal faster and be well. Explore postpartum.net, call 1- 800-944-4773, or text “Help” to 800-944-4773. For emergencies, reach out to the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline at 9-8-8.

Paying for Healthcare
Affordable health insurance can be challenging to find. For help, visit ncnavigator.org or call 1-855-733-3711. Many clinics also have financial navigators to help you explore insurance options, set up payment plans, or access discounted healthcare costs. You may be eligible for Medicaid during pregnancy and for 12 months postpartum.

General Resources
Visit nc211.org or call 2-1-1 for free and confidential information. For more information, go to thrivingheartsnc.org. Thriving Hearts offers a free texting program with more resource information and support from local Community Health Workers.

We know that each woman’s childbirth experience is unique. With this in mind, we offer several birthing options to meet diverse needs and expectations.

At our birthing center, we prioritize the individual needs of each mother. Our aim is to make childbirth a safe, memorable experience, honoring the unique journey of each family.

Our 15 Labor, Delivery and Recovery (LDR) suites are equipped to provide comprehensive care in a single, private room. These spacious rooms foster a homey atmosphere while ensuring that all necessary medical support is available.

Our team is committed to working together for your comfort and safety. Your provider, our anesthesia staff and our nursing team collaborate to offer various pain management options, including epidural anesthesia.

After delivery and recovery, we encourage “rooming in”, which allows mothers and their newborns to bond. This is facilitated through our Family Centered Care Unit (FCCU), where a dedicated nurse provides care to both mother and child.

Recognizing the importance of breastfeeding, we have certified lactation consultants on staff. Along with our knowledgeable nursing team, they’re here to support and assist breastfeeding mothers.

Women and Children’s Ministry

Our house for women and women with children is nestled behind tall oak trees, and situated outside of the city limits of Clayton and Smithfield, it provides an atmosphere of peace and healing for women and children in need.

Women are afforded the opportunity to get on the right track by spending a short time in our care, while they search for employment, seek needed benefits, reestablish relationships with family, and make preparations for living independently again.

Mothers with young children are shown healthy and positive parenting styles. Children are given love, attention, and time.

Blessing Baskets (Food Basket)

The rescue mission’s largest community outreach is Blessing Baskets. When a family or individual in need is referred to us, the mission gets right to work fillings boxes, bags, and baskets of food to take along when visiting folks in need if they are unable to pick it up here. The overflow of food given to the mission for those staying with us is used to help others in the community.

The North Carolina Triple P State Learning Collaborative is taking the guesswork out of parenting, by offering parents and caregivers Triple P – Positive Parenting Program for no or low cost.

Positive parenting is simply an approach to parenting that gives parents and carers tools and strategies to raise their child in an environment that is safe, loving and predictable. Triple P’s positive parenting program allows each person doing the program to decide what is important to them. So, it’s not telling you how to raise children, but giving you the confidence and skills to build good relationships, set boundaries and rules calmly and in ways that kids understand, and follow up with consequences that are not harmful.

Triple P gives families positive strategies that are proven to work. The program can be adapted to suit any situation. Hundreds of research studies show its effectiveness. And it’s totally up to you how to use it.

  • It’s a toolbox, not a rulebook. You get the strategies and knowledge. You choose what tools to use, when, and how.
  • What you do today helps create a better future for your child.
  • Parents from more than 25 countries have discovered how small changes make a big difference!
