Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs) and the Interactive CPC Map Project
What Are Crisis Pregnancy Centers (CPCs)?
The Crisis Pregnancy Center (CPC) Map identifies all of the brick-and-mortar CPCs operating in the United States (U.S.). CPCs are also called "anti-abortion centers," "fake clinics," and “pregnancy resource centers,” etc.
CPCs are religious non-profit organizations that primarily aim to deter people from having abortions. CPCs also oppose contraception and comprehensive sex education. CPCs target people seeking reproductive healthcare.
Although many centers offer limited health services, they are not medical clinics, frequently provide inaccurate health information, and do not adhere to medical or ethical practice standards. Public health and medical organizations warn that CPCs pose risk to individual, family, and public health.

Data shows the prevalence of these centers across the U.S.:
- 2,633 CPCs were operating in the U.S. in 2024.*
