What to Expect at Your Appointment

Walking into a new place can feel intimidating — especially when you’re facing big questions. We want you to feel prepared and supported before you even step through our doors.

Scheduling Your Visit

You’re welcome to book a free appointment online or come in anytime during our open hours. We have offices in Marysville and Bellefontaine. We also serve the surrounding areas, choose the office that’s most convenient for you. If you have a photo ID, bring it. If questions come up beforehand, you’re always welcome to reach out.

When you Arrive

When you come in, we have client advocates ready to greet you. We are ready to listen and to help.

Meet the Heart of New Path

Every visit at New Path is led by a trained client advocate — someone who listens, cares, and supports you without judgment. Our advocates are the heart of our center, and many clients form lasting connections with the people they meet here.

You may notice different advocates on different days, and some clients even choose to return when their favorite advocate is available. Each advocate is here to provide the same compassionate and confidential care — no matter what day you visit.

During Your Visit

Your appointment typically includes:

  • A private conversation about your situation

  • Time to ask questions

  • Clear, honest information

  • Discussion of available resources and next steps

We want every client to feel supported and at home. During your visit, you can share what matters most to you, ask questions, and know that someone genuinely cares about your story and your next steps. We’re here for you — not just today, but for as long as you need us.

Ready When You Are

If you’re ready to talk, need resources, or have questions, we’re here to help. We look forward to meeting you soon!

  • “At 15, I found out I was pregnant. I can’t recall the emotions I felt, but I’m sure, like you I was very afraid, confused, wanting someone to direct me or at least just hug me and tell me it was going to be alright.”

    — Client

  • There are several reasons why I enjoy coming into New Path. The best thing though is the non-judgmental, genuine, love that you and the volunteers provide to the women who come. The amount of support, willingness to help and give resources is just not found anywhere else. You and the volunteers show a real Godly love for all of us that come in there, and our children.

    - Client

  • I’m 25 years old. I came when I was about 16-17 years old. Cara is the who helped me when I came there. They helped me when I first became a mother and had nothing and didn’t really know what to do or how to. They helped me when I got pregnant with my other kiddos and had a miscarriage. Everyone up there are the most sweetest and caring people I’ve met. Over time I believe I made a new friend. It’s nice to know you have someone who not only cared but generally wants to help you and make you feel comfortable.

    - Client

  • “New Path helped me to better understand parenting and know what is healthy and unhealthy communication with my kids. New Path has helped me to be more involved with my Children’s lives, learning what they like and just all around being a parent. I love New Path.”
