Loving Arms Pregnancy Center with locations in Taylorville and Pana wants residents in Christian County to know that there is a place that people can go where free and confidential services are provided including pregnancy tests, consultations, options, referrals, free ultrasounds, mentoring for dads, healthy choices, programs for teens, and and support for those who have experienced a infant loss, or abortion. 

Loving Arms Director Cathy Coker was joined by Client Services Director Amanda Polley and Director of Prevention and Outreach Heather Voelz.  Coker says as the need grows the need for more hands grows.  There are several openings that are needed including the need for a janitor but there are several other positions that are needed to be filled.

Amanda Polley says that as a Client Services Director advocates are needed.  Advocates are the supporters and listeners walking along clients with no judgement but compassion and care. 

Director of Prevention and Outreach Heather Voelz says that  prevention can go a long way towards equipping students to make healthy decisions emotionally, physically, and relationally. 

There are two paid PRN positions open.  These are sexual risk avoidance educator positions open.

Coker says if you are feeling moved and called to serve, reach out at lovingarmsillinois.com or 217-824-7200.
