About Abortion

It is our experience at the Pregnancy and Family Resource Center that elective abortion takes a heavy emotional toll on women. This is often because a woman goes into the decision unaware of the risks of the procedure, the development of her unborn child, and how her relationships will be affected by the experience. Many women regret the decision.

Contact us today. A caring counselor can help you explore all your options. No one can force you to have an abortion, even if you're under 18. Choosing abortion to please your partner is not a guarantee that your relationship will last.
