Central Valley Crisis Pregnancy Center

Pregnancy Care Center, as a licensed community care clinic through CDPH, is an essential service nonprofit organization in our community. All of our medical services are provided by registered nurses and nurse sonographers, and under the direction of our medical director. When unexpected pregnancies happen women, men and families need support and PCC offers free medical services, advocacy, education, referrals, and resources. We continue to achieve our mission through the number of patients we serve. During the 2023-2024 fiscal year we provided 1,181 pregnancy tests, 497 ultrasounds, and have welcomed a total of 3,514 patient visits through our doors. We served 1,532 unique persons of which 182 were male clients looking for support for their families. In addition, we made numerous referrals to other community organizations that can support our patients in areas outside our mission. Our Maple Clinic and Mobile Clinic both provide the same medical services, advocacy, resources, and referrals as our main medical clinic located in the underserved Tower District. Each clinic allows us to reach more of our community with the free medical and support services we offer. The education and material resources we provide our patients offers lasting support for women and men to welcome a new baby into their family and into our community. During the last fiscal year, Pregnancy Care Center's Preparing to Parent on-line and in-person classes where attended 1,403 times. We also offer childbirth education and classes attended by expecting couples or mothers with a support person. In addition, we have expanded our classes to include men through on-line and in-person support. Recently we launched a new program for men called Dudes and Dads. This program is a one a month group meeting with games, food, and education designed just for them. Women and men alike earn baby bucks for attending classes and these are spent in our baby boutique! Pregnancy Care Center recognizes the need and benefits of providing material resources to our expecting families, including car seats to those who attend 15 classes. True and factual education, coupled with material resources, empowers and equips our patients and postively impacts the stability of our community, Pregnancy Care Center offers the HOPE (Healthy Options in Prevention Education) Team as a resource to our community. We provide relationship and sexual integrity presentations to youth and adults. We are serving our community in the local juvenile justice center, group homes, recovery centers, schools, and youth groups. We also offer reproductive loss services to our community. Reproductive loss support is an area of great need in our culture. Our reproductive loss support fills a huge gap where there should be support and addresses miscarriages, infertility, still birth, abortion, or any kind of reproductive loss. Through small groups, advocacy, and support we provide opportunities for healing and restored hope to those who have been hurt by reproductive loss. All of our services are free of charge to our patients, insurances, medi-Cal, and taxpayer funds. We are fully funded by this community for this community. Our donors are reached and engaged through our fundraising events, newsletters, director's letters, and emails.
