ADVOCATING FOR LIFE, FOSTER CARE, AND ADOPTION
Right to Life
I learned from my birth mother that she sought the care of an abortion physician during her pregnancy with me in 1990. She had been referred to him by a friend because his costs were low. He delivered me prematurely at 26 weeks and advised her to leave me for dead.
Foster Care
"I started to examine my life in light of data [about foster care children]–tried to understand why my experience was so exceptional–and concluded that it was because I had an exceptional foster family who deeply loved my birth mother and my siblings."
Adoption
“The permanence of adoption is what I believe sealed my pro-life convictions and made them what they are today. Because I understand that babies like me do not have to die. And there actually are people who will be there for women because I was a recipient of that care myself.”
Sarah at the LA Pro-Life Summit in 2022.

Who Is Sarah
Sarah is a seasoned speaker on a variety of pro-life topics and often shares her personal story of being rescued from an induction abortion and spending nearly eight years in the Louisiana foster care system.
At 16-months, Sarah was placed in the Foster Care system for the first time after the state of Louisiana discovered parental neglect. However, Sarah was in and out of care for almost eight years until her birth mother’s parental rights were terminated.
In Sarah’s biological family, she is one of the youngest four of her mother’s eleven children. As a young child, she was exposed to active Tuberculosis, a life-threatening lung disease, by her stepfather but received treatment in foster care and recovered. Foster care became Sarah’s safe haven in childhood where she discovered firsthand the scope of pro-life conviction through the loving sacrifice of a family committed to her continued care. At nine years old, the same couple that took Sarah at 16 months adopted her into their family. Today, Sarah’s adoptive parents are actively in her life.

A FOSTER CARE STORY
My small hands worked diligently with the Little Tikes Waffle Block set on the floor. I was building a house spacious enough for my large family, with a room for each of my ten siblings and one for my mother, a petite Hispanic woman from Honduras. I wanted my favorite colors, pink and purple, to outline the exterior of the house.
In my heart, I believed that we would be a family free from the clutches of poverty, abuse, and mental illness. Those problems couldn’t coexist with me in the house I was building. I couldn’t wait to see my family again and asked my foster parents if it was time to go.
