Greetings!
Here's a few updates for November...
- November is National Adoption Month! The promotion and strengthening of adoption is so important to the pro-life movement. Abortion has decimated adoption. Data shows that non-married women placed babies for adoption 9% of the time before 1973, yet in 2002, the last time the CDC collected published similar data, it was down to 1%. It's sad to think what it might be today. It's imperative that adoption is promoted as a positive option for moms and babies. We continue to do this through our I Lived on Parker Avenue documentary and much more. Check out the beautiful adoption story below!
- Congratulations to newly elected pro-life State Sen. Jeremy Stine (Calcasieu) and pro-life State Rep. Adrian Fisher (Monroe)!

Louisiana Right to Life Honors Adoptive Families During National Adoption Month |
|
|
|
November is National Adoption Month, and Louisiana Right to Life is proud to be a part of the adoption story through support and education efforts. We honor adoptive families like Amelia and Sean, who have shared their homes and hearts with children who become their own. Said Amelia: "I told myself to truly be Pro Life, I must do more than just use my words or pray in front of an abortion facility; I need to actually save a life, and from that, my decision to adopt was made."

The Christmas giving season is coming up, and just after Black Friday and Cyber Monday comes Giving Tuesday. We hope you will participate in one of two giving projects on Nov. 30 and support our Advertise for Life project, which aims to reach women considering abortion through a variety of advertisements that connect them with a local pregnancy center, where they can find the support they need to choose life for themselves and their child.
