2026 Impact Report
Fifty years ago, Claris began with a simple hotline and a willingness to meet women in moments of uncertainty—one conversation and one family at a time.
Today, that same commitment has grown into a multi-site, licensed medical organization caring for women and families before, during, and after pregnancy and sexual-health choices. Over five decades, Claris has expanded in response to the needs of Los Angeles families, adding parenting support, sexual-health education, medical and mental-health services, prenatal care, a South Los Angeles presence, and a mobile clinic.
The programs and reach have changed dramatically, but the heart of the work has remained the same: listening first, responding to the whole person, and offering care rooted in compassion, dignity, clarity, and hope.
We are thrilled to celebrate the people, stories, partnerships, and measurable impact that made 50 years of care possible—and point toward what we can build together next.
The Claris Way
The numbers and stories in this report reveal the reach of Claris’s work. The Claris Way explains what makes that work distinctive: not simply the services we provide, but how we care for each person who comes to us.
Our care is:
Patient-Led
Each patient’s needs, goals, circumstances, and voice guide their care.
Fully Informed
We provide medically accurate information and space to consider every available option without pressure.
Family-Centered
Whenever possible, we welcome partners and family members and strengthen the relationships surrounding each patient.
Integrated
Medical care, therapy, pregnancy and parenting support, education, and community referrals work together.
Trauma-Informed
We prioritize emotional and physical safety, trust, choice, collaboration, and compassion.
Our Impact
Claris meets women and families in our clinics, throughout the community, online, and through trusted partners.

Their Stories
Every number in this report represents a person with a story. These three voices show what whole-person care can look like at different points in a family’s journey from preparing for birth, to rebuilding family relationships, to receiving care in the midst of recovery.
A Village for a New Mother
“Receiving prenatal care at Claris felt different. It felt personal and intimate. I wasn’t just a number. It felt like family; like Claris was my village. I learned what pregnancy, labor, and birth would look like and how to prepare. Because of Claris, I’m so thankful for the hope I have for my daughter.”
Tools for a Stronger Family
“I wish these classes had been presented before court mediation because I feel I could have avoided many high-conflict legal battles. Now I have strengths I didn’t have before, and I can help other parents. That’s what I’m excited about. Because of Claris, we’re able to access these resources.”
Care That Came to Her
“A patient connected with Claris’s mobile clinic through a women’s recovery program. After spending so long focused on survival, her own health had fallen to the bottom of the list. Bringing care to where she already was made access possible. Our team welcomed her without judgment, answered her questions, and treated her with kindness and respect - reminding her that her health and her future mattered.”
What’s Next: Clarity Together
50 Years Brought Us Here.
Now We’re Building What’s Next.
Fifty years of caring for Los Angeles brought us here. Clarity Together will carry that legacy forward by bringing medical care, counseling, parenting support, and trusted community resources together under one roof.
$23.5 million committed
The four-story, approximately 30,000-square-foot campus in Inglewood is designed to remove the barriers families face when essential services are scattered across different organizations and locations. Patients will be able to access prenatal, pediatric, and primary care; mental-health and family support; parenting education; speech and language services; and practical community resources in one welcoming setting. The campus will also include a coffee shop, playground, and free drop-in childcare.
Five anchor tenants have committed to the vision. We are excited to partner with Choice Health, Shields for Families, Hues Speech Therapy Services, and Inicio Coffee. Each of these organizations brings specialized expertise while sharing a commitment to coordinated, family-centered care.
More than $23.5 million has been committed toward the $26.9 million campaign goal, including the successful completion of a $5 million matching challenge. Once open, Clarity Together is expected to serve 2,000 people each year.
As plans have advanced, Claris has approached the construction process with the same care and stewardship that guide every part of our work. The project is currently moving through thoughtful rebidding and value engineering to ensure that the final campus is both excellent and financially responsible. The vision has not changed: a first-of-its-kind place where families can find trusted care, meaningful connection, and practical support in one location.

A Closing Reflection
As we reflect on 50 years of Claris, we are overwhelmed with gratitude. What began with a simple hotline has become a multi-site healthcare organization that cares for women and entire families before, during, and after pregnancy and sexual-health choices.
This anniversary has reconnected us with former clients, donors, volunteers, and staff. Seeing where their lives have led—the children they have raised, the careers and passions they have pursued, and the ways they continue to strengthen their communities—has reminded us that Claris’s impact can never be fully captured by numbers alone.
Behind every service is a person, a family, and a story marked by both extraordinary joy and very real hardship.
This year also marks my 25th anniversary at Claris. More than half of my life has been shaped by this work, and the work has stretched, grown, humbled, and changed me in more ways than I could have imagined. Together, we have watched Claris grow beyond what its founders could have envisioned while remaining deeply rooted in their original commitment to meet people with compassion and hope.
We are profoundly grateful for everyone whose faithfulness built this rich history. We are equally excited about what lies ahead. As Claris enters its next 50 years and prepares for the future through Clarity Together, we remain committed to seeing every person as someone worthy of dignity, excellent care, and hope.
Thank you for being part of this story. We honor all that brought us here, and we look forward with great expectation to all that is still to come.
