The Pregnancy Care Center specifically does the following:

  1. A neutral location is provided where a woman fearing an unplanned pregnancy can come for confidential testing and confidential peer-counseling.

  2. All services, including pregnancy testing, are provided free of charge.

  3. Unmarried clients with negative test results are encouraged in abstinence.

  4. Clients with positive results are offered the facts about prenatal development, abortion procedures and risks, parenting, and adoption to assist them in making an informed decision regarding their pregnancies.

  5. Emotional support is offered not only to women, but also to the men and families involved in the crisis pregnancy.

  6. Education is provided on pregnancy care and parenting skills are taught. We intend to, but do not yet use a program called Earn While You Learn.  In this program participants will learn valuable information on responsible parenting, they earn Mommy Money or Daddy Dollars that they can redeem for practical items such as maternity clothes, adoption education, nutrition education, parenting education, baby clothing and furniture, diapers, etc. In the interim parents recieve such Baby Boutique assistance at the discretion of the PCC Director.

  7. Referrals are given for community resources including medical care, legal assistance, and adoption.
