Key findings include that PRCs met with clients over 3 million times in 2022 both in person and virtually, including nearly 975,000 new clients. The estimated total service value to those clients was at least $358 million and included pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, parenting education programs, diapers, wipes, formula, baby clothing, car seats, cribs, strollers, and more. The percentage of pregnancy centers providing various services were reported as material items (89.2%), parenting\/prenatal education (87.7%), ultrasound (81.9%), and after-abortion support\/recovery (71.8%).<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the report, which was prepared by CLI Associate Scholar Moira Gaul and CLI Senior Associate Scholar Michael J.
