We Support a Woman's Right to Choose to CONTINUE Her Pregnancy
Ranked #291 in Volunteering, #53,361 overall
Choice. Options. Rights.
These three words have been claimed by the supporters of abortion as their own. However, in the world of pro-life ministry these three words hold just as much importance - if not more.
We believe in a woman's Right to make a Choice for the life of her unborn child. And we can offer her the resources she needs to take advantage of the life-affirming Options available.

Our Organization
Serving Cecil County Maryland, and surrounding areas, since 1983.
The Cecil County Pregnancy Center is a nonprofit, Christian organization committed to upholding the sanctity of human life by demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ to pregnant women and to families with young children.We offer understanding and compassion. And through our free and confidential services, we strive to provide life-affirming support, education, referrals, and material assistance in times of need.
Our services include: Pregnancy tests; peer counseling and emotional support; an incentive-based pregnancy and parenting educational program; sexual integrity and fertility appreciation education; referrals for support and healing from post-abortion trauma; support for miscarriage, still-birth and early infant loss; community resource information; and practical material assistance including maternity and baby clothing, and various baby items and equipment.
Our Care Commitment
Compassion, assistance, respect, education.
We believe in the inherent value and worth of every person. And we're committed to serving our community with compassion and respect through assistance and education.When faced with a pregnancy during a time of need, a woman may not know where to turn. Feeling afraid, overwhelmed, or trapped, she has a life-changing decision to make. We offer understanding and compassion in a non-judgmental and confidential atmosphere where she can turn to get help.
We understand that each woman's situation is unique. We offer accurate information to empower women to make informed and thoughtful choices. We can answer her questions while offering resources and life-affirming alternatives.
Volunteer Opportunities
Unconditional love. Arriving daily.
At the moment a person in need opens the door to our center, the first thing she needs to see is love. The unconditional kind of love that says "I'm here for you". If you want to be part of that love, it's not complicated. We have many volunteer openings.Do you have a heart for Jesus and a desire to reach out in humility to others? Are you 100% pro-life?
Give us a call at 410-398-7888. Or email us at cecilcountypc@comcast.net.
We would love to talk with you about the volunteer opportunities with our organization.

PRO-LIFE Spotlight
A book that reveals seldom-heard truths.
Description from Amazon.com: Victims and Victors lays out a clear argument against abortion in cases of sexual assault and gives pro-lifers the tools they need to combat the argument that abortion is helpful, or even necessary, for women facing a sexual assault pregnancy.This compelling book addresses these complex issues in a clear and insightful manner. Drawn from a survey of 200 women who have experienced rape or incest pregnancies, they speak bravely and candidly of the pain of sexual assault, of the sadness and trauma of abortion, and of the joy and healing of giving birth.
Victims and Victors leaps past the rhetoric that typically dominates the abortion issue to give women a chance to tell their stories.
"I, having lived through rape, and having raised a child 'conceived in rape,' feel personally assaulted and insulted every time I hear that abortion should be legal for rape and incest. I feel that we're being used to further the abortion issue, even though we've not been asked to tell our side of the story." -Kathleen DeZeeuw
"I think that rape victims with pregnancies are discriminated against because people seem to think you're nuts to have a baby by a man who raped you. We are looked upon as being liars, or stupid." -Sharon "Bailey"
"Abortion does not help or solve a problem-it only compounds and creates another trauma for the already grieving victim by taking away the one thing that can bring joy." -Helene Evans
"After my daughter was born, it was love at first sight...I know I made the right decision in having her." -Nancy "Cole"
This book is a "must read" for everyone involved in the pro-life movement.

- Thank you for your kind words about our lens. Your lens on miscarriage was very compelling - I am truly sorry for your loss. It was because so many of our clients who miscarried felt they had no support that we decided to provide the Footprints on Our Hearts Program as one of our services. [in reply to Brookelorren]

- Great lens! I'm going to donate some of the proceeds from my miscarriage lens to your organization. If you put some more pro-life designs on your store (maybe some general pro-life merchandise for people out of the area), I'd be happy to feature those too!
