Being a Parent Requires Help
Life is expensive, and parenting is no exception. In a recent article, Parents magazine listed a state-by-state breakdown of how much it costs to raise a child. In Indiana, they estimated over $20,000 annually.
The LIFE Center team understands the financial requirements of raising a child. We never want finances to be the reason you choose not to parent.
You receive the supplies necessary to raise your child through The Boutique.
In addition, we offer information and referrals for doctors, food banks, 211 assistance, and more.
