Gabriel Project 


Picture
​
​Gabriel Project offers support to women experiencing an unplanned pregnancy and beyond by providing "a friend for the journey".  Expectant and new mothers receive unconditional, nonjudgmental and confidential accompaniment, along with material, emotional and prayer support, through a network of parish-based  volunteers, called "angels". 
 If you are pregnant and need help, please call the Gabriel Project helpline at (913) 602-0306, or visit www.gabrielprojectkc.com.

Current Local Partnerships:
  • Catholic Charities of Kansas City-St. Joseph
  • Pregnancy Resource Centers (PRC's)
  • Maternity Homes
  • Adoption Assistance
  • ​Alexandra's House -- Alexandra’s House is a local community based, all volunteer, peer-led perinatal hospice and infant care system for parents pregnant with babies with lethal or sub-lethal anomalies, for pregnancies that end unexpectedly at any point, from any cause, and for infants who die in the community, any cause.
  • Fetal Anomalies & Special Diagnosis
Future partnerships will include assistance for mothers with young children experiencing poverty and hunger, domestic violence and child abuse, homelessness, and addiction, as well as childcare, early childhood education and job training for expectant and new mothers.

Currently, Gabriel Project is interested in expanding its network of trained volunteers throughout the diocese.  Informational meetings are held regularly for prospective "angels".  

​
To learn about becoming an "Angel", go to www.gabrielprojectkc.org --> “Help Us Help” tab (upper right-hand corner) --> “Volunteer” link on the dropdown menu.  Fill out the form that is displayed and you will be contacted, provided the necessary information, and provided the opportunity to sign up for the next training.  

If your parish would like to start a Gabriel Project ministry, or for times and locations of up-coming informational sessions, please contact Ann Marie at aalvey@archkck.org . ​
