Talking About Abortion (6th Edition)

Christ-centered, sensitive, well-documented, and factually accurate, Talking About Abortion also helps establish consistency and continuity of information that your center offers the public.

Featuring a tab-formated dialogue that reflects the latest information on abortion procedures (the Morning After Pill, RU-486, surgical abortion and more) and a 10-Point Health and Safety Checklist, Talking About Abortion reflects 45 years of experience from Heartbeat International, and is the training guide of choice for Option Line. 

Talking About Abortion is the go-to resource for training staff and volunteers either on the phone or sitting knee-to-knee with a woman who feels abortion is her only choice.

Features:

  • Developed from the experience of Heartbeat affiliates and the OptionLine® model for sharing information on abortion.
  • Phone Call Tips
  • Can be used for in-person client consults or on a helpline.
  • Ten-Point Health and Safety Checklist.
  • Separate talking points on RU-486 and the “morning after pill”.
  • Easy-to-navigate tabs format for quick search of answers to clients’ and callers’ specific questions.
