Planned Parenthood is not for Her

My name is Autumn Christensen, and I serve as Executive Director for Her PLAN, an initiative of the SBA Pro-Life America Education Fund. As a 20 year federal policy and pro-life advocacy veteran, I’ve seen Planned Parenthood and their allies spread the lie that her future is dependent on denying a future to her baby. This is a message of despair that leaves women suffering in the long run…. She deserves a local circle of support committed to supporting her as she pursues her goals without resorting to abortion…

No woman wants to have an abortion

In fact, 60 percent of woman said they would’ve chosen to give birth if they had received more emotional support or had more financial security. But each day, women in our communities who face unexpected pregnancies resort to abortion because they feel backed into a corner, thinking they have no other choice.

Instead of offering her the compassionate support she needs to thrive with her baby, Planned Parenthood pits mother against child and profits from their separation. 97 percent of the time, pregnant women are sold an abortion at Planned Parenthood rather than receiving help to keep their child or make an adoption plan….

When vulnerable women have communities of support around them, they don’t have to resort to abortion. Her baby’s life is saved, her life flourishes with hope and help, and both are empowered to thrive.
