More than half of abortions in the U.S. now involve two “abortion pills,” Mifepristone and Misopristol. It is currently legal in NY for retail pharmacies to mail abortion pills with a prescription via tele-health. CVS and Walgreens have already obtained their certification to dispense abortion pills. Walgreens started providing medication abortions in NY. Giant retail pharmacies are more likely to undergo the expensive certification process than independent privately owned family pharmacies. Chemical abortion kills human beings and increases health risks for women. Retail pharmaceutical sale of abortion pills is deadly for unborn children and harmful for women.

Stay in The Loop Yes, Susan B. Anthony was Pro-Life Published in the Wall Street Journal Read the article here Suffrage Movement ~ Historical Background Restellism/Abortion Racism "Suffragists believed that greater independence of women would eliminate or at least greatly reduce poverty, rape, and prostitution. They believed these evils produced women’s desire to abort their children. Women’s enfranchisement would provide education and employment opportunities, change divorce laws related to drunken husbands, and take away the stigma of single motherhood. Having access to the vote would ‘scourge the evil of abortion’. " Susan B. Anthony was way ahead of the curve in propelling the nation's advancements in human rights for all human beings.

GOAL #1: Post Domestic Violence and Sex Trafficking (DVAST) Hotline Posters in Every Healthcare and Abortion Facility in NY. Healthcare providers are "one of the few professionals lik ely to interact" with victims of domestic violence and sex trafficking (DVAST), women who experience an increased risk of coerced abortions. Survivors of DVAST make up a sizable percentage of abortion clinic clients. Hotlines help release women from DVAST. We nee d you! We are excitedly building 6 new teams, led by courageous FCLNY supporters across NYS to help us reach our DVAST Hotline Poster goal, and end cycles of violence. Please reach out to join a team and help us distribute these vital hotlines. You can also download the posters here. Goal #2: Help draft and enact NY policies that require all public healthcare and abortion facilities to post DVAST hotline posters. NY does not require ANY entity to post the DV hotline. NY requires only a limited category of 'healthcare providers' to post the Trafficking Hotline. Many abortion clinics are either not required to post the Trafficking Hotline or fail to, though required by law to do so. EVERY WOMAN AND GIRL DESERVES ACCESS TO DVAST HOTLINES!

  • LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY | FCLNY

    LEGISLATIVE ADVOCACY FCLNY organizes and participates in both direct and grassroots lobbying on targeted policy issues as well as coordinated media outreach. FCLNY is non-partisan, but works with diverse ideological and/or religious organizations that align with our goals. New York State Medical Aid in Dying Act Pending in NYS The Medical Aid in Dying Act (MAID) (S138 / A136 ) allows for ‘mentally competent’ ‘terminally ill’ people, beginning at age 18, to request and consume deadly medication that will end their lives. Versions of MAID were first introduced in the New York legislature in 2015, and consistently reintroduced during every subsequent legislative term, including in January of 2025. For the first time in NY history, MAID passed in both legislative chambers. Though it passed the MAID bill has NOT YET been sent to Governor Hochul for review and signature. The Governor must sign the bill-for it to become law, or either veto or ignore the bill-for it to die, once delivered to her, by the end of 2025. The fate of MAID is uncertain. If you're a registered NY voter please reach out to Governor Hochul, and ask her to veto MAID, S138. https://www.governor.ny.gov/content/governor-contact-form Please also, download, review, sign and mail the Anti-Maid letter, below, asking Governor Hochul to VETO MAID MAID threatens the horizon and the dignity of human life at its natural end. MAID dehumanizes and devalues the aged, diseased, and disabled. MAID normalizes suicide and decriminalizes assisted suicide. Anti-MAID Letter According to the National Council on Disability “The evidence strongly suggests that … safeguards are circumvented in ways that are harmful to patients.” NY’s pending MAID Act goes far out of its way to forbid referencing death by an intentional dose of lethal medication as a suicide, and to protect accomplices of such suicides from criminal prosecution. MAID clearly supports suicide and excuses assisted suicide for a select group of people. Webster’s dictionary defines suicide as “the act or instance of taking one’s own life voluntarily and intentionally.” MAID destigmatizes the gravity of suicide and undermines the value of human life. MAID is legal in ONLY eleven U.S. jurisdictions including Oregon , New Mexico , Colorado, and Montana where suicide is a leading cause of death, including among youth . “When assisted suicide is legalized it immediately becomes the cheapest treatment.” If health “insurers deny, or even simply delay approval of expensive life-sustaining treatment, patients can be steered toward hastening their deaths.” "There is robust evidence , taken from different jurisdictions and using a variety of statistical methods, that the total number of self initiated deaths rises significantly where [Assisted Suicide] is legally available, and strong evidence that this has a greater impact on older women.” A growing body of research demonstrates that a significant portion of terminally ill patients consider themselves a burden to family and others. The evidence also identifies "self-perceived burden" as a relevant factor in making end of life and death-hastening decisions. Numerous professional associations and organizations oppose ASSISTED SUICIDE, including, the American Medical Association , World Medical Association , National Council on Disability, and the American Association of People with Disabilities. Update on the Status of Medication Abortion in the U.S. and NYS In FDA vs. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine (2024), "The U.S. Supreme Court has ruled to preserve access to the abortion pill mifepristone, a pill used in the most common way to end a pregnancy." "Thousands of women in states with abortion bans and restrictions are receiving abortion pills in the mail from states that have laws protecting prescribers," including New York. It is currently legal for medical providers and certified retail pharmacies to mail abortion pills to women and girls with a prescription via tele-health in NY. Under the current rules surrounding chemical abortion, pregnant women and girls can "take the medication to induce an abortion through 10 weeks of pregnancy," and without a pre-abortion ultrasound. Read High Court's Opinion Here! The RHA Degrades Women and Dehumanizes Children. New York enacted the Reproductive Health Act (RHA) in January, 2019. This law allows for the killing of viable unborn children, including healthy children in utero, for any reason within 24 weeks of pregnancy. Modern medical science is clear that unborn children can be viable (capable of survival outside the womb) as early as 21 weeks gestation. The RHA permits killing viable unborn children, including healthy children in utero, during the later-second and third trimester of pregnancy for reasons unrelated to a mother's physical health. In NY, approximately 1,600 unborn children are aborted each year at 20+ weeks gestation. Studies show most later-term abortions are 'elective,' performed on healthy pregnant women and healthy unborn children. The RHA did away with NY's longstanding fetal homicide law. Because of the RHA it is no longer a separate crime in NY for abusers to kill viable unborn children, including wanted unborn children, in attacks on their mothers. The RHA allows for an undefined group of health care practitioners to perform abortions, including surgical, second and third trimester abortions. Studies show that even mid-level health care providers that perform abortions have higher rates of “incomplete abortion,” uterine “perforation” and “hemorrhage” than physicians performing abortions. The RHA eradicated NY Public Health Law (PHL) 4164, without enacting any form of replacement. In NY, later-second and third trimester abortions can occur in facilities other than hospitals, ambulatory centers or physicians' offices. According to studies, including, Risk Factors for Legal Induced Abortion-Related Mortality in the United States, the "risk of death" for "women obtaining legally induced abortions" "increase[s] exponentially by 38% for each additional week of gestation.” Further, eliminating PHL 4164 allows for infants who survive abortion to die without adequate "medical care" or without a second physician present to care for that infant. According to the Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention children are sometimes born alive during later-term induced abortions. See FCLNY's RHA Report. International World Beyond War Declaration of Peace FCLNY Organizational Signer We seek positive and sustainable peace, founded on justice “We understand that wars and militarism make us less safe rather than protect us, that they kill, injure and traumatize adults, children and infants, severely damage the natural environment, erode civil liberties, and drain our economies, siphoning resources from life-affirming activities.

  • ADOPTION RESOURCE INDEX - NY | FCLNY

    Photo By Guillaume de Germain FCLNY's Adoption Resource Index - NY This index is dedicated to our honorary board chair, Margaret Colin, our inspiration for this project Nine Months of Power Adoption: An Act of Great Love "You have given someone the gift of life and someone else a child to love" -Bianca Bujan, Adoptee Welcome to Feminists Choosing Life of New York’s Adoption Resource Index! This guide contains information on adoption in NY for prospective birth mothers and adoptive parents, as well as a list of NY adoption agencies and NY Department of Social Services (DSS) offices. Our adoption directory also outlines several services and benefits available to prospective birth mothers that are not involved with the foster care system or DSS. It also highlights basic services and benefits for prospective adoptive parents of children either inside or outside of the foster care system. About 18,000 babies in the US are voluntarily placed for domestic infant adoption yearly and each one of them is adopted. An estimated 2 million couples in the US await an infant child to adopt, but only approximately 1% of women in the US will "formally place a child for adoption. Unfortunately, adoption is infrequently presented as an option for women facing unplanned pregnancies. Planned Parenthood offers only one adoption referral for every 81 abortions . Women facing an unplanned pregnancy are far more likely to choose ... abortion than .... adoption. In fact, by a ratio of nearly 50:1, women choose to terminate a pregnancy rather than place that child for adoption. Sadly, approximately 117,000 children await adoption from the foster care system, the overwhelming majority of which are older children. These children are awaiting parents to give them a loving home. These staggering numbers demonstrate the need for more available information and resources to break the stigma surrounding adoption, and to help prospective birth mothers and adoptive parents courageously enter the adoption process. As a pro-life feminist organization, FCLNY seeks to provide women with the real opportunity to CHOOSE the best path for her and her child. We embrace all stages of human life; before birth, infancy, adolescence and adulthood. Our index provides birth mothers with information needed to make the powerful choice of adoption. It also provides potential adoptive parents tools for adopting children from infancy to adolescence. New York State contains voluntary authorized adoption agencies (adoption agencies) throughout the state. NY adoption agencies work with pregnant women potentially interested in serving as birth mothers, women who choose to give birth to their children and to VOLUNTARILY place them with an adoptive parent or parents. They also work with prospective adoptive parents, single or married adults with open hearts looking to adopt children. NY adoption agencies help with the process of adopting children “who may or may not be in foster care.” SEE ADOPTION SERVICES & BENEFITS THE RED LIST OF ADOPTION AGENCIES ARE PRIMARILY FOCUSED ON NON-FOSTER CARE ADOPTIONS. THESE ADOPTION AGENCIES ARE PARTICULARLY IMPORTANT FOR PROSPECTIVE BIRTH MOTHERS WHO ARE NOT INVOLVED WITH THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM OR DSS. THE PINK LIST OF ADOPTION AGENCIES ARE PRIMARILY FOCUSED ON FOSTER-CARE ADOPTIONS, THESE AGENCIES ARE OF IMPORT TO PROSPECTIVE ADOPTIVE PARENTS INTERESTED IN ADOPTING CHILDREN WITHIN THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM. The GREEN list includes DSS offices throughout the state. DSS offices are not adoption agencies, though they work with families interested in adopting children. DSS only helps handle the adoption process of children inside the foster care system. Prospective adoptive parents who wish to adopt children in foster care must first become certified foster care parents. DSS offices and adoption agencies (especially those in PINK below) help with foster care certification and often work together regarding various aspects of the foster care adoption process To better understand the foster parent requirements visit NYS Foster Care . Adoption Agencies and DSS offices are categorized according to Six NYS Regions. For locations near you, please reference this regional map to find your COUNTY. FCLNY utilizes this map for geographical categorization purposes only.

Open adoptions “allow birth mothers to receive updates and photographs and to visit with the adopted child up until he or she is 18 years old, depending on the facts and circumstances of the birth mother and adoptive parents. Many birth parents find that open adoption allows them to watch their child grow and eliminates many of the “what if” questions that come with closed adoptions.” Closed adoptions disallow contact between the biological mother and adoptive family. Prospective Birth Mothers Comprehensive, life affirming services may be available to birth mothers throughout all nine months of pregnancy and thereafter. Some services are provided for a more limited duration. Please check with adoption agencies for specific details and information. A. Services provided AT NO COST TO BIRTH MOTHERS by adoption agencies and/or adoptive parents that may extend throughout pregnancy and thereafter, may include : WIC Referral. The Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants and Children. This program provides healthy food options, nutrition counseling and breastfeeding support along with money from NY to buy food. SNAP Referral. The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program is a food-related program providing the nutrition and food that is necessary for a healthy pregnancy. Medicaid Referral. Medicaid is affordable or free health insurance for low income-eligible New Yorkers, and includes pregnancy care coverage along with coverage for hospital stays for birth mothers and babies. Maternity Leave Referral . The Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) provides some employees and independent contractors with time off from work to birth a child and recover mentally and physically. Legal - Legal costs and fees related to adoption. Referrals to qualified lawyers in the community for representation and to assure rights are understood and protected. Adoption Options Counseling – Open vs. Closed Adoptions. Wrap-Around Supportive Counseling - May include mental and emotional health counseling or support and referrals to other professionals. Empowerment Services – Profiles provided of potential adoptive parents and opportunities to choose the child’s family. Housing Referral – Assistance and referrals to appropriate housing. Medical and hospital fees related to the birth of the child. Post Adoption Contact Agreement Services – Assistance ensuring legal agreements are honored in open adoptions. B. More Services AT NO COST TO BIRTH MOTHERS . The reasonable and actual costs of the following may be covered by adoptive parents - - 60 days prior to birth or approximately 30 days thereafter: Transportation. (Pregnancy related) Maternity clothing. Clothing for the child. Housing. Prospective Adoptive Parents The adoption process in NY tends to follow general guidelines for families looking to adopt children inside or outside the foster care system via an adoption agency. If after careful consideration prospective adoptive parents decide to adopt, the first step is to choose an adoption agency. The agency helps the family throughout the adoption process which involves, among other things, a home study and assistance with safely matching a child with the family. Once the adoption is complete, the agency helps the family find any post-adoption services they may need. For more comprehensive information regarding the process visit NYS Adoption Services . A. Grant Opportunities Gift of Adoption The goal of this grant is “to remove prohibitive financial barriers and make possible the adoptions of some of the most vulnerable children in the U.S,” who may or may not be foster care children. Adoptions can be expensive and this grant enables families, including grandparents and other kin, to adopt needy children by providing funds throughout the adoption. For more information regarding this grant, click on the link above. Prospective Adoptive Parents (DSS/Foster Care) A. Services/Benefits All costs of adoption , including legal costs, are paid for by NYS and federal funds for parents who adopt children inside the foster care system. Adoption Subsidies (monthly maintenance payments) may be available for parents who adopt children inside the foster care system that are ‘handicapped’ or ‘hard to place.’

Stay in The Loop Yes, Susan B. Anthony was Pro-Life Published in the Wall Street Journal Read the article here Suffrage Movement ~ Historical Background Restellism/Abortion Racism "Suffragists believed that greater independence of women would eliminate or at least greatly reduce poverty, rape, and prostitution. They believed these evils produced women’s desire to abort their children. Women’s enfranchisement would provide education and employment opportunities, change divorce laws related to drunken husbands, and take away the stigma of single motherhood. Having access to the vote would ‘scourge the evil of abortion’. " Susan B. Anthony was way ahead of the curve in propelling the nation's advancements in human rights for all human beings.

Thank you to all who attended FCLNY's March 2025 Book and FiIm Club discussing Charles Camosy's book: Losing our Dignity: How Secularized Medicine is Undermining Fundamental Human Equality. Professor Camosy makes it clear how secularized medicine and mainstream culture discounts the humanity of so many, recognizing the value of only SOME humans, while dismissing the worth of others, ignoring- whole sale- the inherent value every human being possesses. As pro-life feminists, FCLNY recognizes the intrinsic value and dignity of every member of the human family, from conception to natural death. No one person or group of people has the right to label and condemn 'unworthy' people to death. The most basic human right is the right to live free from violent destruction. Informal Dialogue Circles Where topics related to the consistent life ethic are discussed, Including abortion, war, and capital punishment, from divergent perspectives.
