The Missouri Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice was incorporated in 1982. We are a statewide coalition of diverse religious organizations that believe that a woman should be free to make reproductive health choices according to her own conscience and faith.

We Affirm Our Faith Aloud!

We define reproductive choice in the broadest possible sense. We encourage consideration of the many choices that can lead to a reduction in the rate of unintended pregnancy, as well as supporting all of the choices available to pregnant women, including adoption, abortion, or adequate support for the health and economic well-being of the family.  Therefore, we faithfully support comprehensive sexuality education, family planning, contraception, child care subsidies, compassionate and culturally appropriate reproductive and pre-natal health care, as well as maintain that abortion can be a morally responsible choice.

Reproductive Freedom encompasses the rights of all people--male and female, gay and straight, young and old--to protect their privacy and to create the families they desire.  Read our full statement on Reproductive Freedom.
