Helping Pregnancy Clinics Remain Viable, not Vulnerable!
Focus on the Family offers strategic training seminars in high abortion areas around the country to help Pregnancy Medical Clinics (PMCs) become Influential, Medical, Professional, Accountable, Culturally-relevant and Trustworthy. That's what the I.M.P.A.C.T. Training is all about! At the seminar, participants receive comprehensive instruction on how to better reach women at risk for abortion and how to operate with excellence in areas of Mission Strategy, Organizational Strengths, Marketing, Donor Development and Client Outcomes. Medical clinics that would like to participate may contact Focus on the Family for requirements. New dates for I.M.P.A.C.T. coming soon on Heartlink.org.

What PMCs Are Saying about I.M.P.A.C.T.:
These clinics' leadership teams attended IMPACT at least one year ago and have had time to implement the training processes and content. They recently participated in a survey that reflected how well the training has improved their operations. We thank them for their participation and all their hard work! Here is what some clinics had to say:

Our entire team was inspired, challenged and re-energized. We were blessed by the in-depth, yet practical tools provided by each instructor. One of the best things was that we were all there together—hearing the same thing and having opportunities to "flesh it out" during the exercise/teamwork times. Hands down—the best training we've ever received in our 15 years of ministry! Thank you, Focus on the Family!
Holly Duncan, CEO, Lubbock, TX

The training was very beneficial to our team in 3 significant areas: our entire team trained together, each able to consider the material from a unique perspective; the material was so specific to our high-abortion community; the team of presenters gave us great information and then allowed us to stretch our brains through implementation exercises. Hope there's another IMPACT in the works!
Sue Parker, CEO, Memphis, TN

Looking at the marketing aspect of utilizing our web site in a different way was quite valuable to us. We have also used targeted advertising on the internet to better reach our potential clients. What we are seeing in comparison to the previous year, is a 47% increase to date in babies saved and a 41% increase to date in abortion minded women coming to the PRC from 2007.
Mary Jayne Fogerty, CEO, Dallas TX

Our organization has experienced tremendous growth since the first IMPACT training. The greatest thing I gained was insight into which areas of our organization needed attention. We have since received additional training and assistance from local consultants and a training organization. We are better positioned for future expansion!
