The mission

What this organization describes

Leading the transformation to end this grave human rights abuse
Founded in 2008, Live Action is exposing abortion for the grave human rights violation that it is, and creating an environment where life is the top human rights priority for our local and national leaders. We report daily on stories and conduct undercover investigations that have uncovered the abortion industry providing sex-selective abortions of preborn girls, covering up the sexual abuse of minors and sex-trafficking, accepting racially-motivated donations, disseminating medical misinformation, and participating in infanticide and other wrongs towards women and children. Live Action mobilizes activists and give them the tools and resources they need to educate their own communities about the right to life.
