The question of rape will come up in virtually every conversation about abortion. Unfortunately pro-life advocates often make mistakes when answering, and we want to help you express the genuine compassion you already have for survivors of rape, as well as share a sound bite that we’ve found to be persuasive in our dialogues with pro-choice people.

We have an entire module of the Equipped for Life Course devoted to this issue. Below is a list of our other resources on the subject. You can always share this information with people by simply directing them to EqualRightsInstitute.com/Rape.
