Women's Care Center of Lincoln
helping pregnant women from our communities choose life for their babies, have healthier pregnancies, become better parents and take first steps to self-sufficiency
In its first full year (2021), Women’s Care Center on South 48th Street in Lincoln saved 244 babies and performed 650 Ultrasounds! Sarah Kroner brought the Women’s Care Center to Lincoln because abortions were increasing. In 2017, 519 abortions were performed in Lincoln at the Planned Parenthood on South 48th Street. In 2018, that number increased to 618…. a 19% increase, clearly illustrating the great need for additional life affirming services in the community. In 2023, with the expansion of the Care Center, 715 clients were served. Since opening less than 4 years ago, abortions are down 41% in Lancaster County.
Women’s Care Center was founded by the well-known Catholic theologian Dr. Janet Smith in 1984, when she was a young professor at the University of Notre Dame. The center has grown to now serve over 30,000 women annually in twelve states. Women’s Care Center provides free pregnancy tests, ultrasounds, counseling, support, and educational programs for women.
Due to financial support from people like Steve and his RUNBORN initiative, Women’s Care Center is blessed to be open. In order to continue serving women and children in Lincoln, ongoing support is crucial as Women’s Care Center grows.
