What Next Step Pregnancy Services does

Next Step Pregnancy Services is a licensed medical clinic and 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization headquartered at 19526 64th Avenue West, Lynnwood, Washington, founded in 1998 and operating Monday through Friday from 10:00 AM to 5:30 PM Pacific Time. The organization provides a portfolio of free, confidential pregnancy-related services to women in the greater Lynnwood area: lab-grade pregnancy testing, limited obstetric ultrasounds confirming pregnancy location, viability, and gestational age, sexually transmitted infection testing and treatment, options counseling, abortion information, abortion pill reversal via progesterone therapy, FEMM menstrual cycle education, reproductive loss support, and material assistance covering diapers, wipes, clothing, formula, and nursing supplies. All services are delivered at no charge to clients, with no insurance, income, or residency requirements, and the clinic explicitly does not perform or refer for abortions.

The clinic is staffed by three registered nurses and serves patients primarily through direct clinic visits plus the eKyros-powered patient portal at portal.ekyros.com. The portal supports online appointment scheduling, intake forms, secure messaging with the care team, secure exchange of documents and images, and patient access to portions of the electronic medical record, protected by six-digit multi-factor authentication delivered by SMS. Privacy and security controls have been implemented for compliance with the Washington My Health My Data Act (MHMDA), including SSL encryption, firewalls, password policies, audit trails, and procedures honoring consumer rights under MHMDA; the organization adopts voluntary HIPAA-style controls and complies with the Washington Uniform Health Care Information Act (RCW 70.02), alongside acknowledgment of California, Colorado, Virginia, Utah, and Nevada resident privacy rights.

Operating revenue is sourced entirely from charitable donations rather than service fees. Donations are accepted through the FundEasy online platform (powered by v4app), by mail, and in person; the organization identifies itself to donors under EIN 61-1590547. Marketing and patient acquisition are conducted via Google Ads, Google Search Console, and Google Analytics for search-engine optimization, an active blog focused on pregnancy, miscarriage, STI, prenatal-care, and single-mother resources, and prominently displayed patient testimonials across service pages. The clinic holds accreditation from the Accreditation Association for Ambulatory Health Care (AAAHC) and a Candid (formerly GuideStar) Platinum Seal of Transparency for 2026.
