Mission Statement
Our mission is to restore legal protection to innocent human life.  Our main thrust has been the abortion controversy; however, we extend our concern to other right to life issues such as abstinence, euthanasia, infanticide and embryonic stem cell research.  We do this by educating the public, keeping the pro-life message visible and encouraging people to take action and pray.

History
Right to Life of Adams County was formed in 1980 by local pro-lifers and has grown to 130 due paying members. Our newsletter now reaches over 500 individuals.   In the early days we were generously given space by Catholic Charities.  In 2001 we were able to obtain an office, with a visible storefront window where pro-life posters, banners and other pro-life messages are displayed.  This is our resource center that is open to the public for two hours three times a week.  We have numerous videos, DVDs, books, magazines, pamphlets and research material for public use.
