Pro-Life Activities

USCCB Respect Life serves the U.S. Bishops’ goal of building a culture of life “from womb to tomb”.

Welcome to USCCB Respect Life

We help local Respect Life ministries, as well as individual Catholics, to live and share Christ's Gospel of Life. Here, you can find pro-life prayers and devotions; facts about abortion, euthanasia, and bioethics; resources for supporting local ministries; Action Alerts to raise your voice politically; and practical help with sharing the truth about dignity and value of every human person.

Walking with Moms in Need

Walking with Moms in Need is a process by which Catholic parishes and communities "walk in the shoes" of local pregnant and parenting women in need. Everyone should know how to help moms in difficult circumstances. While not trying to turn Catholic parishes into pregnancy centers, we can support local pregnancy centers where they exist, and we can also find and share other resources with pregnant and parenting women. And where there are few local resources, we can create our own, based on the gifts of the parish community.
We hope you and your parish will join us!

The Truth About Abortion and Women's Health

This one-page resource dispels the many myths which claim restrictions on abortion will limit women's access to life-saving care. This resource can be printed in parish bulletins, included in newsletters, shared on social media, and more in order to help educate Catholics about these false claims.
