Tennessee Action Council: Ministry for At-Risk Children is a 501c3 nonprofit organization, partnering with pregnancy centers, and is comprised of two divisions: Helping Hands and Project Life, both focused on children and families.

Jacquelin McDonald, Tennessee Action Council Board President, comments: “Being involved with this ministry, knowing my efforts are truly helping women in need, saving the lives of innocent children, surrounding and helping families stay together, and maintaining the dignity and worth of traumatized children is truly God honoring work. Please join TAC in serving our community.”

Project Life

Project Life provides

• Specialized mobile clinics for convenient prenatal testing and counseling
• Unique partnerships with pregnancy centers to meet community needs for testing and education
• Service to multiple geographies

The goal of Project Life-see a life, save a life-is to lease ultrasound units (costing more than$250,000 each) to existing pregnancy centers throughout the country. Project Life provides free prenatal testing, ultrasounds, education, and counseling in specialized mobile clinics to help women make informed choices about the life of their baby. Ultrasound technology helps these centers more effectively show women with unintended pregnancies that they have far more positive choices for their future and the future of their child than they might think.
