You don't have to walk this journey alone.

We empower parents of NICU and special needs children to discover, heal, and thrive in their daily lives through faith-based support groups, help lines, and personalized life coaching.

How We Serve

We are a faith-based nonprofit with a heart to support NICU parents and women in seasons of struggle. Our mission is to fight for you in prayer, equip you with resources, and walk with you toward mental, emotional, and relational healing.

Parent Care

From thoughtful care packages to hands-on support, we remind parents with children in the NICU or with special needs that they are seen, loved, and covered in prayer.

Support Groups

Find strength in community. Our support groups offer a safe place to process, pray, and grow with other parents who understand your journey.

Help Line

You deserve a safe place to turn. Help Line connects you with compassionate listeners and faith-based nurses who provide both prayerful and practical support when you need it most.

Stories of Hope

Real Stories, Real Miracles

Joseph was born at just 25 weeks and spent six months in the NICU battling severe lung complications and feeding challenges. What followed were months of hospital visits, therapies, and countless moments that tested his family’s faith. Today, Joseph is a thriving 3-year-old—breathing without oxygen, growing stronger every day, and showing the world that God still performs miracles.

His journey became the spark that birthed Contend For You—a ministry created so no parent has to walk their NICU or special-needs journey alone.

Standing in the Gap for Families in the Fight

At Contend For You, we believe no parent should have to walk through medical challenges, NICU stays, or special needs journeys alone. We exist to stand in prayer, provide tangible support, and walk alongside families as they heal and rebuild—mind, body, and spirit.
