BC, February 3, 2021 — Pregnant people across B.C. are struggling to access services or find support that used to come naturally prior to the Covid-19 pandemic.
BC Association of Pregnancy Outreach Programs (BCAPOP) responded to this need by launching The Pregnancy Hub in September 2020. This virtual prenatal education program is free, open to all pregnant people in B.C., and can be accessed from the comfort and safety of home. The service delivers evidence-based information while also connecting participants to local community supports.
The Pregnancy Hub provides online live prenatal, healthy eating, and post-partum classes that are taught by a variety of professionals. It also offers a space for pregnant people to connect during a time when many are staying home and in person supports are limited. Being pregnant during a pandemic is an ever-evolving experience that leads to increased feelings of isolation and disconnection from one’s community; The Pregnancy Hub exists to mitigate these experiences.
BCAPOP is fundraising for The Pregnancy Hub by hosting its first virtual 50/50 draw that closes at 11:59pm on February 24th.
Tickets are 1 for $15, 3 for $40 or 6 for $60. Buy tickets today for a chance to win and help people have healthy pregnancies during this difficult time.
Chances are 1 in 1,700 (total tickets for sale) to win the 50/50 prize.
