ABOUT US
  • A crisis pregnancy center (CPC), sometimes called
    a pregnancy resource center (PRC),
  • is a type of non-profit organization established
    to counsel pregnant women against having an
    abortion.CPCs generally
  • provide peer counseling related to abortion,
    pregnancy, and childbirth, and may also offer
    additional non-medical
  • services such as financial assistance,
    child-rearing resources, and adoption referrals.
    CPCs that qualify as medical
  • clinics may also provide pregnancy testing,
    sonograms, and other services however, the vast
    majority are not licensed
  • and provide no medical services.CPCs have also
    been known to disseminate false medical
    information, usually about the
  • supposed physical and mental health risks of
    abortion.

  • CPCs are typically run by pro-life Christians
    according to a conservative Christian
    philosophy,and they often operate
  • in affiliation with one of three non-profit
    organizations Care Net, Heartbeat International,
    and Birthright
  • International. As of 2013, there are roughly
    2,500 CPCs in the United States, as compared with
    1,800 abortion clinics.
  • Canada, as of 2003, had roughly 200 CPCs and
    about 25 abortion clinics. Hundreds more operate
    outside of the U.S. and
  • Canada. At least 20 U.S. states provide funding
    for CPCs, and from 2001 to 2005, 50 CPCs received
    30 million in funding
  • from the U.S. federal government. By 2006, U.S.
    CPCs had received more than 60 million of
    federal funding, including
  • some funding earmarked for abstinence-only
    programs.

Legal and legislative action regarding CPCs has
generally attempted to curb deceptive
advertising,targeting those that present
themselves as abortion clinics or requiring
centers to disclose that they do not offer
certain services or possess certain
qualifications.19 In 1993, the National
Institute of Family and Life Advocates (NIFLA)
was formed to provide legal advice to CPCs in
the U.S
