Story #26: Ryan’s Story

At 18 years old, Ryan found herself facing a decision that would change the course of her life.

Pregnant and still so young, Ryan visited Women’s Pregnancy Center, where she was met with compassion, support, and someone willing to walk alongside her as she considered her options.

Ultimately, Ryan made the courageous decision to place her child for adoption.

Today, Ryan can look back on that season of her life with a perspective that only time can bring. She went on to college, built a life of her own, and carries with her the story of a decision rooted in love for her child.

We invite you to listen to Ryan’s story and see how one young woman’s courage, supported by a caring community, helped shape two lives.

Below are photos from an old newspaper article, taken after Ryan gave birth, showing her with her child’s adoptive parents. It’s a snapshot from one moment in a much bigger story—a story that has continued to unfold for decades.
