DID YOU KNOW…

 cpc logo  from the desk of the director…..

GOD created us to be relational beings – after all – HE created us to love Him!  He created Eve because, as He put it, “It is not good for man to be alone,” and He created Adam and Eve to be together, husband and wife, life-mates.   Relationships are the very essence of our being.  but in this world of “instant gratification”, and “me-first”  healthy relationships have become very difficult to develop or maintain. 

did you know that the state of Texas has nearly the highest rate of teen STD’s in the country? and Harris County leads the state?  did you know that 3.2 million teenage girls is infected with at least one of the most common sexually transmitted diseases?  did you know that 1 in 4 young women between the ages of 14 and 19, in the USA has an STD?  did you know that This Year, CPC Pasadena has seen 7 girls who are  13 or14 years old?

Our Mission Statement states that we provide “education in healthy lifestyle choices”.  So what does that mean???  It means that this year CPC Pasadena will be offering a revolutionary education opportunity for the clients at CPC, and the community!  We will be teaching about healthy relationships, making decisions, and setting goals using an interactive education style that has been proven to reduce STD’s, drug and alcohol use, while increasing the age of sexual onset, reducing the number of partners, and preventing abortion!

Stay tuned! Change is in the air! And its coming to Pasadena and Harris County!
