April is Abortion Recovery Awareness Month

Contact: Stacy Massey, Abortion Recovery InterNational, Inc.

Governor Tim Pawlenty, who recently announced an exploratory committee to run for President, highly endorsed Abortion Recovery Awareness Month in April of 2010, as have Governors Perry and Jindal.

So what is Abortion Recovery Awareness Month?

Abortion Recovery Awareness Month (aka Abortion Recovery Month) was established in 2005, by Abortion Recovery InterNational, Inc. to encourage and extend healing opportunities to individuals and families hurting from an abortion experience. 

During the month of April, Abortion Recovery InterNational encourages Christians, around the globe, to enlighten society by reaching out to individuals and families in their community who might have been impacted by abortion. 

Stacy Massey, Abortion Recovery InterNational President/Founding Partner, states: 

"One abortion, through a ripple effect, may touch the hearts of 40-50 people in a lifetime. We, as a society, are not always prepared on how to help! Our staff, volunteers and affiliates are here to assist ... not only those hurting and their families; but to begin to educate society and the church on how to reach out with compassion!"

Abortion Recovery Awareness Month is secular-friendly. It is free of condemnation, judgment or negative connotations. It has no political agenda! 

Says Massey, "Whether we are of faith or not, we tend to label abortion as a media and/or church "hot point". When we truly should be looking at how to assist those that have post-abortion complications. We need to realize and acknowledge that not everyone suffers after abortion, yet those that do, may need help from others!"

An Abortion Recovery Awareness Calendar for the month of April is established each year providing ideas and resources to promote healing for those hurting. 

The ultimate goal is to share Compassionate Abortion Recovery Efforts!
