Each year in March, Care Net Pregnancy Center of Southern Maryland holds an Annual Benefit Dinner. This year's banquet will be held on March 26th at 6:30 pm. Tickets and table sponsorships are available online at friendsofcarenetsomd.org/annual-banquet/. This year's keynote speaker is Melissa Ohden. Melissa is the survivor of a failed saline infusion abortion in 1977. Despite the initial concerns regarding Melissa’s future after surviving the attempt to end her life at approximately seven months gestation, she has not only survived but thrived.
