About Us - The Staff

Andrea Kraziese, Founder and Director

A wife and mother of three children, Andrea started this center in 1998 with the help of family, friends, and the community behind her. She was raised in Sanford and graduated from Seminole High School.  Her career in banking helped prepare her to lead and direct this pregnancy center with wisdom and integrity.  She stays focused on the mission God called her to and has been fearless when it comes to stepping out in faith as the center grows.  This center has been a model to help others start CPC's in their community.
