The CPC Metro Area is a nonprofit with medical clinics that exist to listen, encourage, and equip expectant mothers to make the choice for life. On May 1, the CPC is hosting a Life Walk as part of that mission.  

     The walk will be held at Flowood Nature Park, at 4077 Flowood Drive. Registration is from 8 to 9 a.m., with the walk starting at 9.

How can you help? 

     The CPC is asking for volunteers to come out and support the walk. The goal is to have 60 partner churches, each represented with a team. A walk ambassador will recruit a team of 10 walkers from his or her church and lead the team. Each walker’s goal will be to raise $250 to help the CPC continue offering life-saving services to women of the metro area. 

     Participants may also walk individually or with their families. 

More about the CPC

The CPC has two medical clinics for women who are considering abortion or who might not know the steps to take for their unplanned pregnancy. The CPC provides counseling, parenting support groups, and contacts with adoption agencies. 

     The CPC is now also partnering with churches to lead support groups. Currently, eight churches in the Jackson metro area are equipped, trained and ready to help.
