WHO WE ARE

In Virginia, the preborn aren’t safe—the abortion industry takes the lives of over 3,000 children every month. Dedicated pro-lifers in Virginia are taking action to save lives. Still, the abortion industry is relentless, working to pass a constitutional amendment that will make abortion a protected right in the commonwealth. In the face of abortion extremism, it’s time to take bold action.

That’s where Virginia for Preborn Justice comes in. We are a volunteer grassroots movement dedicated to creating a Virginia beyond abortion, and we want you to join us! Read on to learn more about who we are and what we do:

Our Vision:

We dare to imagine a Virginia beyond abortion: a state that models what a culture of life looks like, from local networks of support to pro-life statewide policies, powered by communities of people seeking to radically love and care for one another.

In a Virginia beyond abortion, abortion is not the default response or a “solution” to pregnancy; it is unthinkable. This future will be created by an interconnected network of pro-life organizations and individuals working to make abortion unnecessary, illegal, and unthinkable through localized strategies–strategies built on organized statewide resources and allies across the political and ideological spectrum. Virginia beyond abortion will lead the nation in establishing laws that prioritize maternal health and preventative care, encourage and support family units, provide postpartum support, and implement foster care and adoption system reforms.

For generations, we have allowed the abortion industry to control the narrative and instill fear that without abortion, there is no future. It’s time to remind Virginia that the preborn are our future. Building a Virginia beyond abortion is possible, and it starts with us!
