IMPACT REPORT

2026-2027

For over 40 years, Life Network has saved thousands of preborn lives and equipped young parents in and around Colorado Springs.

By focusing on three key areas – Prevention, Intervention, and Transformation – we offer life-affirming services to more than 15,000 community members each year.

Prevention

Ensuring students and youth in our community know their value and make healthy relationship decisions that protect their value.

Education for a Lifetime is central to this segment of our mission, educating students on healthy relationships, sexuality, suicide prevention, and mental health.

Last school year, this outreach program…

Reached 35 schools

Impacted more than 8,200 students

“Thank you Education for a Lifetime. I learned about a lot of important things and how to set boundaries. I will not do drugs or drink … that way my body is healthy going forward.”

Intervention

Providing free medical services and compassionate, non-judgmental care to women and men facing unplanned pregnancies.

Our four Colorado Springs Pregnancy Centers – Eastside, Fountain, Galley, and Westside – meet people in their time of need, helping them consider different options and empowering them to make life-affirming decisions.

Last year, you helped us…

Serve 3,012 patients

Provide 1,488 life-saving ultrasounds

Save 710 babies

Liliana

“I don’t know what I’m going to do about this pregnancy,” said Liliana*. Her attitude reflects that of many of our patients.

Already a mother of several children, Liliana felt completely overwhelmed, strapped financially, and unsure if she could handle another pregnancy.

Together, she and her advocate carefully talked through all of her options. Though she considered herself a Christian and used to be involved in a church, she admitted she hadn’t read the Bible much. When offered a Bible, she gladly accepted it.

When her patient advocate stepped out of the appointment room briefly, Liliana sat alone with her thoughts. By the time the advocate returned, Liliana was in tears.

“I believe God brought me to this clinic for the encouragement I needed in this moment.”

When Liliana saw her baby’s heartbeat on the ultrasound screen, she said “Abortion is off the table for me now.” That day she left considering adoption or parenting, and knew she was not alone.

Transformation

Empowering moms and dads to thrive through ongoing support, mentorship, and the life-changing love of Christ – because lasting transformation begins with Him!

Last year, we had…

3,591 appointments with moms and dads in our Parenting Program

4 Bible-based Bridges of Hope support groups for moms and dads healing from a past abortion

50 patients and clients decide to follow Christ through gospel conversations

…and served many others through Professional Counseling.

“Going through Bridges of Hope helped me know more about God’s character, which resulted in knowing more about myself and has left me with a hunger to grow in my faith like never before.”

New in 2025, The LifeCast, a part of the Life Network podcast, is full of hope and encouragement, designed to keep you informed about important life-affirming topics, and hosted by Rich Bennett, our President/CEO.

Family Thrift Stores

Our two Life Network Family Thrift Stores provide the community with quality goods at affordable prices. Clients receive or earn gift cards to shop for furniture, clothing, and more as they start their families. All proceeds support the life-affirming work we do!
