It&#8217;s an updated version of a previously released preliminary report from December. The updated data states that in 2022, pregnancy centers assisted over 974,000 new clients and provided goods and services to women, youth, and families. This includes ultrasounds, baby gear, baby clothes, diapers, formula, health care services, and education. Over 97% of the clients served reported having a positive experience.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the report revealed that since 2019, pregnancy centers have provided a 12% increase in ultrasound services, and have seen a 41% increase in clients attending parenting classes and a 27% increase in STI testing. The number of pregnancy centers associated with a maternity home doubled from 24 to 46, and the percentage of pregnancy centers that provide ultrasounds, STI treatment, parenting classes, and &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/archive.liveaction.org\/news\/abortion-pill-reversal-hormone-sustain-pregnancy\/\">abortion pill reversal<\/a>&#8221; (APR) also increased.

More than a quarter of the paid staff and about 12% of volunteers now have medical licenses, and 82% of the pregnancy centers now provide medical services on site.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Michael New, senior associate scholar at Charlotte Lozier Institute, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncregister.com\/cna\/report-pro-life-pregnancy-centers-provided-over-367-9-million-worth-of-services-in-2022-f0jliedk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">told<\/a> the Catholic News Agency that there has been an increase in demand for the services provided by pro-life pregnancy centers since the overturning of <em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> in the June 2022 Supreme Court decision in <em>Dobbs v. Jackson Women&#8217;s Health Organization<\/em>. Along with the increased demand, the centers have seen an increase in both private donations and funding from state governments. Both Ohio and Florida enacted legislation to increase their funding for pregnancy centers, and Arkansas issued funding for pregnancy centers for the first time in 2022. In 2023, Iowa, Tennessee, and West Virginia each gave funding to pregnancy centers for the first time, Kansas created a program to fund pregnancy centers, and Texas, Ohio, and Florida all increased funding as well.<\/p>\n<div class=\"article-content article-content--headless\">\n<p>&#8220;The year 2022 was challenging for pro-life pregnancy help centers,&#8221; wrote New for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationalreview.com\/corner\/pro-life-pregnancy-centers-provided-services-worth-367-million-in-2022\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Review<\/a>. &#8220;Anecdotally, many pregnancy centers saw an increase in clients and phone calls post-<em>Dobbs<\/em>.
