Medical Mobile Unit
Bringing Life-Saving Care to Women Across the Lehigh Valley
Bright Hope’s Medical Mobile Unit is bringing compassionate, life-affirming medical care directly to women throughout the Lehigh Valley. Through free and confidential services, women can receive medical care, support, and referrals to resources that help them choose life and move forward with hope.
Women who may face transportation barriers, uncertainty, or lack of support can receive a free medically verified pregnancy test, early ultrasound, STI testing, and prenatal vitamins in a safe and private environment without needing to travel to Bright Hope’s Pregnancy Medical Center.
Patient Spotlight
A woman visited Planned Parenthood seeking the abortion pill, but because she had her young daughter with her, she was turned away. Providentially, our Medical Mobile Unit was nearby, and both she and her daughter were welcomed on board. Our staff provided resources and support, and the mom’s heart was changed. She wound up signing up for parenting classes and baby supplies at our Allentown center as she prepared to welcome another child into her family. Learn more about her story:
How You Can Help
Volunteer Your Time & Talents
Every time the Medical Mobile Unit goes out into the community, a dedicated team is needed to serve women with compassion and care: a driver, sonographer, client advocate, and 1-2 trained sidewalk advocates.
Our biggest need is for volunteer drivers. If you can help, please complete our volunteer inquiry form or call 610-821-4000.
Commit to Being a Monthly Donor
Operating the Medical Mobile Unit costs approximately $4,000 each month for fuel, maintenance, staffing, and insurance. If 80 people committed to giving $50 per month, those ongoing costs would be fully covered. Please consider helping to meet this need.
Attend a Sidewalk Advocates for Life Training
Bright Hope provides Sidewalk Advocates for Life training to those who feel called to speak to and pray for women and men at abortion clinics. This training is an essential tool in being armed with the best knowledge of how to care well for these people by connecting them with the Medical Mobile Unit.
If you are interested in attending a training, please call 610-821-4000 and ask for Becky.
Be a Prayer Warrior
Our hope is for the Medical Mobile Unit to lower the number of abortions taking place in the Lehigh Valley. Please pray for protection over the vehicle and the staff and volunteers serving on it. Pray for the women and men who find themselves in a situation they never imagined to find hope and help on our Medical Mobile Unit. Pray for the Sidewalk Advocates willing to serve near the vehicle and offer hope and life-affirming support.
Please also pray for a permanent enclosed, heated storage location with electricity so the Medical Mobile Unit can continue operating through the winter months.
