About Us

The mission of the Sacramento Life Center is to offer compassion, support, resources and free medical care to women and couples facing an unplanned or unsupported pregnancy.

Founded in 1972, the Sacramento Life Center is a 501(c)3 non-profit and was the fourth of now 3,000 pregnancy medical clinics established across the country. They were one of the first in California to offer free ultrasounds, one of the few clinics that is a licensed medical clinic and the first in the Sacramento area to offer mobile medical clinics. 

We are committed to ensuring all women and teen girls have access to free or low cost medical care – especially those who are pregnant with nowhere to turn. We are committed to making sure every pregnant woman has the resources and support she needs to become a parent. We serve everyone regardless of financial standing, ethnic background or religion, and we provide all services for free, thanks to private support from individuals, foundations and corporations – we receive no government funding. We do not request or require medical insurance, and we do not contribute to political campaigns or ballot initiatives.
