About

Our approach

Spring Water provides a pathway to hope and healing with after abortion individual care, support groups and retreats. A mix of professionally trained counselors and peer trained individuals serve as staff and volunteers on the team. Spring Water utilizes a grief and trauma focused approach to help women and men heal from the effects of abortion. Spring Water is an outreach of Daybreak, Inc., a Christian 501(c)3 organization. Each person’s unique faith and belief backgrounds are respected.

Safety

We affirm the importance of physical and psychological safety in healing. We seek to avoid behaviors, actions and attitudes that may lead a participant to feel distressed or re-traumatized

Empowerment

We affirm the value of recognizing each participants strengths — this includes a belief in resilience and the power of encouragement to assist in equipping people to overcome difficulty.

Collaboration

We recognize that healing often takes place in the context of relationships where power, narrative and decision-making are shared. We consciously seek to provide emotional, mental, and spiritual supports in a healthy community environment.

Humility

We strive to uphold the graces of humility and mutual submission, acknowledging that participants and helpers alike are all on separate and intersecting journeys of growth and healing.
