Pro-life help for women and children


One of the frequent accusations made by abortion supporters is that pro-lifers only care about the baby in the womb, and do nothing to help the woman or the child after.

This is, of course, false. There are homes and ministries and agencies that help the women and their children long after the children are born. Many programs help the women get back on their feet, and support them through the effort, providing direct assistance and guidance.

Here in Rochester, for example, we have the Margaret Home.(I played a  role as secretary of the board, helping to get the project off the ground, including getting it incorporated and locating a building to purchase; more capable people have advanced it.)

In this file I will compile links to other such places and organization. I will update it regularly as I find more addresses.
