What is the Pregnancy Resource Center (PRC)?
The Pregnancy Resource Center of Stanly County is a locally organized and funded non-profit ministry. It is governed by a local board of directors which carries out the activities of the center through a staff and well-trained volunteers.
Why a PRC?
Pregnancy, ideally is a time of joy…however, there are circumstances in which a pregnancy is viewed as a problem because of the physical, emotional, economic, social or untimely factors. The PRC exists to aid women who may not be aware of alternatives to abortion by providing
information and support as they sort through their fears and anxieties.

What about cost?
All services are provided at no cost. The PRC is designed to help clients with their respective needs through the resources of the local church as well as community support.
Whom do we serve?
The PRC exists to serve any woman in an unanticipated stress pregnancy regardless of age, race, creed, or marital status. PRC services are also available to the family and father of the child.

Mission Statement
The Pregnancy Resource Center of Stanly County is committed to offering to the community the love, hope, and truth of Jesus Christ concerning sexuality, marriage, and family.
We befriend, educate, comfort, and support abortion-vulnerable adults and teens before, during, and after pregnancy. We are a private organization funded and supported completely by donations from individuals, churches and businesses throughout the Stanly County community.
We would be glad to have the opportunity to make a presentation of our work to any church or civic group upon request.
