NOPARH's message to men:

"If you are the father of an aborted baby, I am sorry for your loss. I realize that the society as a whole has told you that you have no right to grieve or struggle with the abortion decision. However, I know from hearing the stories of many fathers, that some men hurt a great deal after the abortion. They pinpoint that event as a turning point that marked the beginning of the end of the relationship. Whatever your story, we care about you. Please do not hesitate to call us if we can help you. We understand your pain and your loss. You don't need to struggle in isolation. We can connect you to other fathers who have experienced what you did and can offer support on your healing journey."

This organization is ecumenical and non-denominational. Their referral line enables them to help people looking for support to find it in their own communities.
