facility, located in the small town of Kanab, Utah, is actually a
beautifully remodeled hospital. It includes three wings with
comfortable, spacious living quarters, each wing has it’s own
living/day room, and an additional wing with classrooms and offices.
The facility also has a large theater room for movie nights, and an
adjoining recreational room. A membership to the local gym a few
blocks away is also provided. Located in a secluded part of town,
our facility is nestled right below the beautiful coral cliffs.
Ideally, the new Kane County Hospital where medical services will be

Every twenty-six seconds a young woman who is not prepared to be a
parent becomes pregnant in the United States. These young mothers
are faced with many challenges; the possibility of dropping out of
school, problems finding a good paying job and additional
pregnancies. Our name implies exactly what we offer; a chance to
begin again with hope and dignity . . . a chance to prepare for the
future and to get their life back on track. Our loving and caring
staff are dedicated to their needs and success Alt Link: New
