Contrary to popular opinion a large proportion of abortions are either unwanted or coerced.
TheUnChoice.com is an evidence-based Elliot Institute campaign to raise awareness about unwanted abortions, post-abortion issues and maternal deaths and to provide help, hope and healing.
 
The US-based Elliot Institute was founded in 1988 to perform original research and education on the impact of abortion on women, men, siblings, and society. It publishes research and educational materials and works as an advocate for women and men seeking post-abortion healing.
 
The following figures, referenced below from an Elliott Institute publication, are eight evidence-based facts about the pressures women having abortions face.
