It\u2019s not uncommon to hear people explain that they are pro-life and really want to help stop abortion<\/a>, but they just don\u2019t know what they can do in their little corner of the world. The truth, however, is that everyone can help to end abortion by participating in varying ways. Here are 10 ways to get started:<\/p>\n

1. Educate yourself\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Without question, if we want to stop abortion, we have to understand the issue itself. Live Action News can help you understand the complexity of the abortion issue, as well as keep you updated on various developments, laws, and other news. Follow Live Action News here<\/a>. Also, become educated about abortion itself. Additionally, AbortionProcedures.com<\/a> details non-graphic abortion information, as narrated by a former abortionist, Dr. Anthony Levatino, who is now pro-life and helps others understand the truth of abortion.<\/p>\n

Know the truth about the abortion industry. Abortion advocates spin their cause to make it seem as if abortion is nothing but a simple medical procedure to which every woman has a right. However, as Live Action has revealed over the years, in addition to the obvious tragedy of annihilating the life of a preborn baby, the abortion industry is also about aiding and abetting sex trafficking, helping child sex abuse thrive, and even helping minors circumvent the law and obtain abortions. (View Live Action’s investigations and body of work here<\/a>.) Also, become informed on issues such as the fact that abortion is never medically necessary<\/a> to save the life of the mother<\/a>, though the abortion industry frequently claims that it is. Know the magnitude of what you\u2019re dealing with so you can be more effective in the effort to help stop abortion.<\/p>\n

Finally, get literate on your own fertility! Knowing and tracking your fertility cycle (if you’re a woman) — and teaching others how to do so — can help prevent abortions. After all, many abortions come from someone who gets pregnant when she doesn’t want to be.\u00a0Teen STAR<\/a> is a great resource. They have been teaching teens to track their fertility cycles for over 30 years and found in a 2014 study: “Virginity was maintained by 97-99% of participants. 40-50% of previously sexually active females and 30-50% of previously sexually active males discontinued sexual activity.”<\/p>\n

When women understand how to work with their own bodies in a natural way to prevent pregnancy when needed — and when men get on board with this — there will be less abortions. Of course, whether pregnancy is intended or not, we need to educate ourselves and others on why abortion is never the answer.<\/p>\n

2. Start a pro-life focused group in your community<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pro-lifers are often accused of \u201conly wanting the babies to be born.\u201d Of course, that is false, but one way to help stop abortion is to be actively involved in the fight.<\/p>\n

Multiple organizations exist that encourage people to start chapters in their community. From groups like Embrace Grace<\/a>, which is a ministry to single and pregnant women, to Bound4LIFE<\/a>, which is a prayer-focused pro-life group, the opportunities are ripe for local outreach.<\/p>\n

3. Harness the power of social media <\/strong><\/p>\n
