I’d like to just have a conversation about all of the abortion controversy. Project Prevention has no stance as an organization about abortion.
I’m just curious about how our supporters feel and have a few thoughts from my personal experience.
One of our clients had 13 abortions prior to coming to us for birth control. I know many of you just took a very deep breath or uttered a few cuss words, but my question to those of you who are against abortion is would you be willing to adopt any of the children you believe should be born?
I personally just believe we cannot have an issue with abortion unless we’re willing to step up and adopt these children addicts do not want.
Project Prevention believes birth control prevents abortions!
I personally believe if we’re not part of a solution we’re part of the problem.
Please consider adopting. There are over 460,000 children in foster care with more being added daily…
