Sacramento Life Center

The space may be clean, but the intentions are not. The goal of this organization is to pressure pregnant people to give birth. They are a «crisis pregnancy clinic.»
I called. They offer «abortion counseling» which means they tell you why you shouldn’t have one. They also don’t offer access to the morning after pill, despite it clearly stating on their website, the one linked to an online ad, that the morning after pill is one of the services they offer. Deceptive.
The Sacramento Life Center and the Sac Valley Pregnancy Center are the same organization — but the Catholicism of the center’s founders is only celebrated on the Sac Life Center’s website. The free pregnancy test consists of you peeing on a stick.

I have to agree with the other Unilocalers. This is not your typical free/​low-​cost or county clinic. It’s really a clean, comfortable, quiet, easy going place and the staff are amazing. Seriously better than even going to my UCD doctor’s office, whom I cannot go to now because of the great Obama Care gap and lack of coverage for a while. They give you the tools and resources you need to make informed decisions and their services are free. Each room is like being in a private counseling office with a couch and generally great atmosphere. I really appreciate having a service like this where they truely care about you, rather than just another person off the streets looking for a freebie.

Thanks to the Sacramento Life Center, I was able to have a pregnancy test and ultrasound FOR FREE. A true miracle, considering my pregnancy was unexpected and at the time I was unemployed with no health insurance.
Contrary to the opinion of the 1 star reviewer, I found the staff to be MD’s, professionals, and very kind, caring & knowledgeable individuals.
It’s overwhelming (shocking, scary, lonely, happy, sad, miraculous, confusing) finding out there is a baby growing inside you. My experience at the Sac Life Center was very much like much-​needed therapy. I was given a forum to ask all my questions without feeling rushed or ignorant of all things «baby». The staff want you to have every piece of information possible so you can make a well-​informed, educated choice.
The Sac Life Center perhaps has pro-​life leanings, but there are no priests with rosary beads & holy water or right wing, anti-​abortion fanatics with «babykiller» signs lingering in the vicinity of the office (which I must add is very centrally located and quite convenient to park at).
Believe me, by NO means will you be made to feel pressured or «guilt-​ed» into a choice involving your body or bringing a life into the world at the Sac Life Center.
Rather, you will receive an overabundance of information to help you make what may be the most difficult decision of your life. The nice staff will help you with insurance or aid from the state if you need it. They will fill out all paperwork for you. They will find a doctor for you. They won’t give you information on abortion clinics but easy enough to find that on Google (Women’s Health Specialists, Planned Parenthood). They even provide options for baby-​daddies to get information and advice.
You will feel cared for. If you have a husband or partner or just want to be a mother, they will celebrate with you. If you are alone and scared, you won’t be anymore. I’m not a religious person but I can truly say that finding the Sac Life Center was a small miracle.

The people who work here are amazing! I have a 2 month gap without medical coverage and found out that my hubby and I are expecting. They were so nice and accomodating, truly cared and provided me with educational information, a urine test, and ultrasound at no charge! Places like this are truly rare, and I am extremely fortunate to have found them. If you are expecting and do not have medical coverage, or even if you do, call them! They are so encouraging and loving. My husband and I were so impressed by them. It was such a beautiful thing to see our little baby on the ultrasound, neither of us could quit smiling!
