About Project Rachel
It’s normal to grieve a pregnancy loss, including the loss of a child by abortion. It can form a hole in one’s heart, a hole so deep that sometimes it seems nothing can fill the emptiness. You are not alone.
The Archdiocese of San Francisco sponsors Project Rachel which helps women and men heal the pain of abortion and to find the path to peace and reconciliation.
If you are in need of healing because of abortion, please call (415) 614-5567 or email projectrachel@sfarch.org. We will keep all interactions confidential. -
