There was minor damage to the faith-based nonprofit. No injuries were reported.
Nine other facilities across the country were also targeted with arson, vandalism or both. Most attacks were at facilities that promote alternatives to abortion but Planned Parenthood and other buildings that perform those procedures were also targeted in some cases.

"Today's announcement reflects the FBI's commitment to vigorously pursue investigations into crimes against pregnancy resource centers, faith-based organizations, and reproductive health clinics across the country," said FBI Director Christopher Wray. "We will continue to work closely with our national, state, and local law enforcement partners to hold responsible anyone who uses extremist views to justify their criminal actions."
