How to Recognize Crisis Pregnancy Centers

Learn how to recognize Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs) that use deception instead of real care.

What Are CPCs?

CPCs (Crisis Pregnancy Centers) are facilities that may appear like legitimate reproductive health clinics but are often run by organizations with an anti-abortion agenda. They rarely employ licensed medical professionals and typically offer biased, inaccurate information.

Common Deceptive Practices

  • ❌ Pretend to offer abortion services
  • ❌ Pressure patients to delay or change decisions
  • ❌ Promote “abortion reversal” — a medically discredited claim
  • ❌ Refuse to discuss contraception or real options
  • ❌ Misrepresent themselves with names like “Women’s Health Center”
