The Catholic Pro-Life Community, the Respect Life Ministry of the Diocese of Dallas commissioned in 1993, is devoted to ending abortion and restoring respect and legal protection for every human life. The CPLC carries out this mission through life-saving ministries serving the public with supportive services for mothers and their children, education and advocacy on life issues and women's health, and abortion aftercare. The CPLC has been called the largest and most effective diocesan pro-life organization in the world and a model for the nation. The Mission of the Catholic Pro-Life Community is to educate, unite, and mobilize Catholics and people of goodwill to end abortion and restore respect and legal protection for every human life from conception until natural death.
