Post Abortion Support
We're here to help
We offer a safe, judgment-free, confidential environment to express and work through the emotions associated with abortion loss.
Although many women feel some relief after an abortion, others have negative emotions afterwards. These reactions may be immediate or may occur years later. Women who have had an abortion have reported the following reactions:
-
Guilt, grief, anger, anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, difficulty bonding with partner or children, eating disorders
If you or someone you know is experiencing these symptoms, we offer confidential, compassionate support to help women work through these feelings. Our Post Abortion Support program is highly confidential and available one-on-one or in a group format.
“I chose to have an abortion because I thought having a baby would ruin my life. After I had the abortion, it was like I was holding this big secret. I didn’t want anyone to know because I felt guilty and ashamed. There’s always this sense of loss, and I struggle with sadness.” —CAPCC PARE client
