Beginnings Hamilton is the head office for Beginnings. All adoption work is done through this office—we have satellite pregnancy care centres in Cobourg, Guelph and Woodstock.
In the conviction that life is a gift from God,
Beginnings provides services related to pregnancy and adoption.
A group of concerned Christians met in 1981 to discuss the difficulties faced by women with unplanned pregnancies and thereafter recognized the need for a Christian counselling and adoption service. Thus, Beginnings was incorporated in 1984 and opened its doors in 1985. To this day, Beginnings continues to provide services with Christian values, but respects the rights of those we serve whose beliefs are different.
