"Pro-Women," "Pro-Information" and "Pro-Love"

“Pro-Women” means that we affirm all women.  We appreciate the abuse and hardships that many face during their lifetime, especially hardship which comes through males. We therefore are not sympathetic towards abortion because we believe it is another way in which the male dominated medical system (by far, most abortionists are men) abuses women by not providing other meaningful options or good counselling on those options.  The options from the medical system are often: either have an abortion (which we will do for you) or have the child (at which point we will do nothing practical for you). Our experience at the Pregnancy Centre is that many, many women have serious long-term difficulties after their abortion and we therefore believe that it is not a good referral.

“Pro-Information” means that we believe that all people deserve, and are entitled to, absolutely all the information about the options and procedures of abortion they may encounter. This includes the harder truth about parenting and adoption. It also means telling the harder truth about abortion. We seek, in as gentle a way as possible, to let the facts and details speak for themselves; after all, none of us have the right to force a decision on a person and we believe that coercion or manipulation is inappropriate and condescending.

“Pro-Love” means that we include and emphasis upon the emotional health of the individuals involved. We are absolutely non-judgmental and non-condemnatory. We only want what is best for the clients ... and they, unless they have been severely damaged by life experiences, are the ones who know best.

Even if a client decides to proceed with an abortion, we always affirm them by letting them know that we are here for them even after the abortion.  If they ever want to talk or have any concerns, we are here for them.

In all of these we acknowledge that we do not have, nor should we seek to have, power over other individuals. Abortion is legal and it is a woman's legal right to choose it. It is also our moral obligation not to refer women for procedures which we honestly believe are harmful directly to her. In the same way that it is currently viewed as an inappropriate referral if a doctor advices or refers a male newborn patient for circumcision, we too believe that some referrals are harmful or simplistic or inappropriate.
