Are You Hurting?


Maybe your abortion was a long time ago.  Or maybe it was recent.   Doesn't really matter how long ago or how many abortions you have on your heart.   If you had an abortion or participated in someone's decision to have an abortion, that experience can stay with you for a long time.

We understand how you feel and you're not the only one.   More than 45 million abortions have been performed since 1973 (when abortions became legal in the US.)  Eighty percent of those women and men regret their abortions and suffer from some of the same symptoms.
