What Follows Abortion?

No action is more damaging than abortion. It kills a child and wounds everyone else in its reach. Yet there is a path to healing and wholeness after abortion.

This is an educational website to help you understand more deeply both the wounds and the healing that follow abortion. We will help you to find the research articles, interviews, statistics and explanations of the dynamics that follow abortion. Whether you are a student, professional counselor, member of the clergy, pro-life activist, or just someone seeking to learn more, you have come to the right place. Priests for Life is at the center of the pro-life movement as well as the movement for healing after abortion, and we will keep this site updated with the latest information.
