Beginnings is a non-profit, Christian-supported agency established in the Hamilton area in 1985. We are a private adoption agency licensed under the province of Ontario that offers pregnancy counselling and support.

     
Beginnings - Our Organization
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.

Our Mission Statement
In the conviction that life is a gift from God, Beginnings provides services related to pregnancy and adoption.

History of Beginnings
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.
