EFRAT IL
The goal of Efrat Association in Israël ("EFRAT IL") is to inform women faced with an unwanted pregnancy that there are choices. Not all unwanted pregnancies must end with an abortion.
EFRAT believes in a woman's right to free choice, and that information is the key to making an educated, well-thought-out choice. An elective abortion is a viable option only after a woman understands the full implications of her decision. To that end, EFRAT sets up lectures and distributes informative pamphlets, videotapes and CDs, demonstrating the different phases of a fetus' development and the rewards of parenthood.
EFRAT assists thousands of women who choose to continue their pregnancy with monthly food packages and basic baby equipment such as cribs, strollers, baby baths and layettes.
EFRAT maintains contact with several hostels to provide unmarried young women with a warm, caring environment, far away from the tension of social pressure.
EFRAT's over 3,000 trained volunteers are constantly available to provide women facing an unwanted pregnancy with one-on-one counseling and emotional support backed by EFRAT's assurance of physical assistance.
Since 1977 EFRAT has already saved tens of thousands children. Through a combination of education and economic assistance, EFRAT has helped establish a new generation of Jewish families.
