Unplanned — a transforming movie

MADISON — When you hear the word “abortion”, does your mind shut down, not wanting to face discomfort, uncertainty, confusion about what is right and what is wrong?

Do you believe abortion is a woman’s right? You are not alone.

Has your life been touched by abortion . . . as the mother, father, grandparent, or relative? You are not alone.
