MADISON — The new Women’s Care Center in Madison is planning an open house on Saturday, May 19, from 1 to 4 p.m. to celebrate its successful first four months of operation and allow the public to see the crisis pregnancy center located at 3711 Orin Rd. on Madison’s east side.
“We’ve had great support in both time and money from so many wonderful people and organizations, and that’s why we want to open our doors for people to see what we’ve accomplished together,” said Margie Blau of Madison, a member of the center’s board.
Angela Gorenc, BS, RN, the center’s director, said the Women’s Care Center has been getting “busier and busier.”
The center opened on January 18. There were 10 visits from clients in January. “Last month we had 42 visits from clients,” said Gorenc, making a total of over 100 visits since the center opened.
The Women’s Care Center is located right across the street from the Planned Parenthood Clinic where abortions are performed. Gorenc said there have been clients who planned to go to the clinic and instead walked across the street to the Women’s Care Center and decided to have their baby.
