Every baby born at Good Counsel is a reminder that hope is alive, that mothers are stronger than they know, and that every life is a gift worth celebrating.

We are delighted to announce the arrival of four new babies born to mothers in the Good Counsel program during May and early June:

💗 Isabella Nicole, born May 8 at our Bronx home

💗 Aurora Willow, born May 15 at our Staten Island home

💗 Na'lina, born June 2 at our Riverside home

💙 Jedidiah, born June 5 at our Spring Valley home

Please join us in praying for these beautiful children, their mothers, and all of the families who are beginning this new chapter of life.

Each birth is more than a statistic. It represents a mother who chose life despite challenges, uncertainty, or fear. It represents a child welcomed into the world with dignity and love. And it represents the countless supporters, staff members, volunteers, and donors who make Good Counsel's mission possible every day.

Twin Blessings

This year has already brought us two sets of twins:

👶 Alejandro & Alexandro (Bronx)

👶 Jordan & Jakyri (Riverside)

Every one of these 21 children has a unique story. Every one of them is a testament to the courage of a mother who chose life and the power of a community willing to walk beside her.

At Good Counsel, we believe that no woman should have to choose between her future and her child. Through housing, education, counseling, childcare, life-skills training, and ongoing support, we help mothers build stable and hopeful futures for themselves and their families.

Thank you for being part of that mission.

Together, we continue to celebrate life, strengthen families, and welcome each new child with open arms.
