Meeting Hearts at the Well| Your Gift Brings Hope After Abortion
support after abortion offers compassionate support for those impacted by abortion, and practical training and resources for those helping them heal.
They’re struggling—and many are struggling alone.
I had an abortion last week, and I’m dealing with a lot of grief and guilt. I’m struggling trying to find motivation to get back to my regular activities. It’s been hard. I feel severely depressed and find it hard to eat anything. I’m also struggling with school, probably from lack of motivation.
How do you heal? I’m lost. It’s a daily struggle. I just don’t know how to believe I’m going to be forgiven by the Lord.
I had an abortion a year and a half ago. I went through a very abusive relationship mentally and emotionally. When I got pregnant, I wanted to keep it, but the person I was with forced me to get an abortion. I don’t really talk about it. I’m really depressed. I tried to hide it away, but it’s just hard. I basically lost myself. All I feel is guilt for doing it.
These are the voices we hear every day— women and men carrying pain they feel they cannot share with anyone. The shame. The isolation. The belief that no one could possibly understand.
Here’s what many people don’t realize: regardless of anyone’s views about abortion, the reality is that people from all walks of life can struggle deeply after abortion. Some feel relief initially, only to be blindsided by grief months or even years later. Others know immediately that something has shifted inside them—but don’t know where to turn or if they’re even “allowed” to feel this way.
They’re struggling, and they’re struggling alone.
In the Gospel of John, Jesus encounters a Samaritan woman at a well—someone society had cast aside, someone carrying secrets and shame. But Jesus doesn’t meet her with condemnation. He meets her with compassion. He sees her. He listens to her. And in that sacred moment of being truly heard without judgment, transformation becomes possible.
This is the heart of our mission at Support After Abortion. We believe that healing begins with compassion and care—with being a safe space to express what they feel and to be seen and heard.

The people reaching out to us are looking for what that woman at the well found: someone who will meet them exactly where they are, without judgment, and offer them living water for their weary souls.

Meeting people where they are
Support After Abortion exists to be that well—that sacred space where healing can finally begin.
We provide compassionate, judgment-free support to anyone struggling after abortion. When someone calls our After Abortion Line, searches our provider directory, or accesses our resources, they find what they’ve been desperately seeking: a place where they can finally be open about their pain without fear of condemnation.
But we don’t stop at listening. We connect people to healing options that meet their unique needs:
● One-on-one or group support—because some desire individual care while others find strength in community
● In-person or virtual sessions—meeting people in the format that works for their lives
● Clinical or peer-led approaches—honoring that healing looks different for different people
● Faith-based or secular resources—respecting each person’s spiritual journey
Just as Jesus spoke to the Samaritan woman, we meet each person as they are. We listen with compassion. And we connect them with the healing method that’s right for them—not a one-size-fits-all approach, but personalized care that honors their individual path.
Through our comprehensive resources—including programs like Keys to Hope & Healing, Finding Solid Ground for men, Unraveled Roots for digging deeper into what’s under the pain, and our Nature-Based Healing guide— we provide practical tools for the healing journey.
Your donation makes compassionate care possible.
Every gift ensures that when someone finally finds the courage to reach out, we’re there to answer. That when they’re ready to begin healing, they have access to professional support and proven resources. That they don’t have to walk this path alone.

Lives transformed through hope and healing
The transformation we witness is nothing short of remarkable. People who once felt imprisoned by shame and secrecy find freedom. Those drowning in darkness discover light breaking through. Hearts that were shattered begin to mend.
Listen to their voices:
I called the After Abortion Line out of desperation. I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The pain was all consuming. The phone rang, and a woman answered. She let me cry, told me it was OK to feel. She stayed on the phone with me until I felt better; drained, but better. I just finished my healing group and cannot believe how different I am today than I was just a few months ago. Thank you for saving my life.
When I first started my group I couldn’t even say the word abortion. I felt if I acknowledged what I had done I would have to relive it. The opposite has been true—in sharing my story with those in mygroup I have found that acknowledging what I did has given me freedom, not caused me more pain.
I never thought I would get out of the darkness I was living in. I never thought I would be able to talk about all the trauma I endured in my life, especially my abortion. I felt alone and ashamed. Then I found Support After Abortion through a simple Google search. The Keys to Hope and Healing group was exactly what I needed to start breaking free.
This is what hope and healing look like. Lives reclaimed. Futures restored. People who thought they’d never smile again learning to laugh. Parents who couldn’t look at their living children without guilt now embracing them with freedom.
In 2025 alone, with donor support, we’ve:
● Supported over 300,000 client engagements
● Provided 96,000 abortion healing provider trainings
● Facilitated more than 9,300 directory searches connecting people to local care
● Gained over 21,000 views of our self-guided healing resources
● Created over 611,000 social media connections
But behind every statistic is a person—a woman or man who was drowning and found solid ground. Someone who was isolated and found community. A hurting soul who encountered compassion and discovered healing.
Like the woman at the well who ran back to her village transformed and eager to share what she’d experienced, the people we serve are finding new life. They’re stepping out of shadows. They’re breaking cycles of trauma. They’re becoming whole again.
And your gift today makes this transformation possible.
