WHO WE ARE
re.think is a program of Hope Rising Pregnancy Center. Hope Rising has been serving the greater Miami Valley since 1982 by providing free pregnancy testing, limited ultrasounds, material resources (diapers, formula, car seats, etc.), parenting education and more for women facing unplanned pregnancies.
WHERE IT ALL BEGAN
After nearly a decade of serving women facing unplanned pregnancies, Hope Rising decided to become proactive. In 1991, we started the Worth Waiting For program. Worth Waiting For shared the message that abstaining from sexual activity is a powerful, positive, and possible choice in classrooms throughout the Greater Miami Valley.
WHERE WE ARE NOW
Attitudes and mindsets about sexuality have radically changed since the program started in 1991.
Misinformation about sex has had devastating effects on the physical and emotional health of teens and young adults.
In 2023, we recognized the need for teens to have access to accurate and research-based sex education so they can make the healthiest choices. After a lengthy strategic planning process, we knew we needed to expand our services and that’s when re.think emerged.
