Since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade last month, pro-life organizations have continued to serve pregnant women and their babies despite a spate of vandalism and intimidating attacks against them.
One such organization is Real Alternatives, a pro-life nonprofit which began in Pennsylvania in 1996 and has since helped thousands of women across several states facing unplanned pregnancies by providing counseling on alternatives to abortion and material resources such as baby formula and other necessities.
The director the pro-life pregnancy center network says they have been “working for the past 26 years to create a safety net” for the post-Roe era. Their counseling and material support services are available to mothers up to 12 months after they give birth.
“Luckily we have Catholic Charities and pregnancy support centers and maternity homes that are ready, willing and able to help as many women as necessary,” Kevin Bagatta, Real Alternatives’ founding CEO, told CNA in May.
