Our Values
Professionalism
We are proven professionals in all the areas of services we
offer. Clients initially meet with registered nurses and we have a team of medical
doctors and health care professionals available for consultation when necessary.




Dignity and Non-discrimination
We value the inherent dignity of every human
being, believing each person is made in the image of, and is loved by God. We do not discriminate based on gender, race, ability, age, sexual-orientation, and/or religion. All are welcome.
Education and Information
Information is critical in decision making. Education and information empowers, transforms, and acts as a reference to those who receive it. All of our services are research and best practice informed.




Safety
Atwell provides a safe, non-judgmental, confidential environment to make truly informed decision-making.
Choice
Freedom of choice is a core Canadian principle. Atwell values the right of individuals to make decisions about pregnancy and sexual health without shame, judgement or embarrassment.




Faith
Atwell is a faith-based agency. The love of Jesus informs all we do and every interaction we have with clients. We follow Christ’s example of love as we care for every person who walks through our doors with love, respect, and dignity.
Hope
We believe hope is powerful, and we desire that each person who comes to Atwell Centre finds a renewed sense of hope. Whether facing an unexpected pregnancy, an STI Test, post-abortion reality, or uncertainty around sexual health, our clients are not alone.
