Post-Abortion

Project Rachel was founded in 1984 and is a confidential reconciliation and healing program based on love, forgiveness and mercy.  The program is sponsored by the Diocese of St. Augustine and serves those requesting post-abortion help through individual counseling.  Clergy and professional counselors, trained to minister to those affected by abortion, respond with compassion and concern.  More information is available by visiting www.hopeafterabortion.org or by calling (877) 908-1212.

Rachel's Vineyard is a weekend retreat program developed in 1995 and based on meditations from the Bible.  It is open to women and men of any faith background or no faith background who are suffering in the aftermath of abortion.  The retreats are run by a trained team consisting of clergy, a professional counselor and 4 - 6 lay women.  These confidential, compassionate retreats are offered throughout the U.S. and in many foreign countries.  Further information is available by calling (904) 221-3232 or on-line at www.rachelsvineyard.org
