Heartbeat International is the largest pregnancy help network in the U.S., with more than 3,000 pregnancy resource centers and maternity homes across the country. These organizations served almost 2 million people in 2019, providing free medical, education and support services – from diapers, pregnancy tests and cribs to temporary shelter, clothing and parenting classes – to help mothers and their babies.
