Personal Accomplishments:

Lisa has twice served as a gestational surrogate mother giving birth to twins in 1994 and a baby girl in 2002 for couples unable to have their own children.  Her experience has touched the lives of not only the families and friends of the couples, but of Lisa's own family & friends.  She maintains a good relationship with both families and keeps in regular contact.

Southwest Pregnancy Counseling Center, Inc. is a non-profit organization founded by Lisa.  The Center's motto is "Education and support for decisions that last a lifetime."  Because of Lisa's own personal story of being an unwed mother at 21, she recognizes a large need to help others without judgment and with love and compassion.  She speaks regularly in the local high schools to share the option of Open Adoption as an alternative to abortion.
