We also provided 415 hCG pregnancy tests, 66 prenatal visits and had 3 patients pursue abortion pill reversal, totaling 8 appointments. Choices Family Services program saw a total of 1,953 family services appointments for moms and dads. A record number of moms and dads completed Choices' Earn While you Learn program (62), and the Next Steps parenting program (parenting support through age 3) had 246 appointments, as well as 252 total visits for those seeking support and healing after an abortion. All services were provided at no cost to patients and clients.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
