MISSION STATEMENT / STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

Revised 2002

The Pregnancy Center of Monroe County, Inc., is a pro-life Christian ministry offering services and support to people who are challenged by pregnancy. Our mission is to uphold the sanctity of every human life and to promote the special place of sexuality within marriage and children within strong families.

Aware that abortion is never a justifiable option, The Pregnancy Center offers, through education and services, positive alternatives for the woman facing a problem pregnancy. The Pregnancy Center shall not advise, provide, or refer for abortion or abortifacients.

All services are free of charge, personal and confidential. The Pregnancy Center is not a medical clinic. In addition to free pregnancy tests, The Pregnancy Center offers maternity clothes, baby essentials, educational classes, and post-abortion healing ministry. The Pregnancy Center encourages chastity as a positive lifestyle choice. We seek to minister to the physical, emotional and spiritual needs of our clients and are committed to presenting the Gospel of Jesus Christ in word and in deed.

The Pregnancy Center is governed by a volunteer Board of Directors, utilizes trained volunteers, and is staffed by one paid Director. The Pregnancy Center of Monroe County is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization and all donations are used for the support of the ministry’s programs. The Pregnancy Center never discriminates because of race, creed, color, national origin, age or marital status.
