Шаблон:Short description Birthright International is an international anti-abortion organization of crisis pregnancy centers. It offers a range of services, to an estimated 10 million women,[1] designed to "help support a woman's desire not to have an abortion," including referrals to legal, medical and psychological services, as well as a range of community support assistance such as financial aid.[2][3][4]

The organization, founded in 1968 by Louise Summerhill[5] has its international headquarters in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, having originated at Coxwell and Danforth.[1][6]

Following the death of Summerhill, her three daughters Louise, Mary Berney and Stephanie Fox, as well as her granddaughter Victoria Summerhill Fox have taken major roles in running the organization.[1]

In July 2022, after the Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization decision was released in the United States, a Birthright CPC in St. Paul, Minnesota, was vandalized for the seventh time since 2017. MPR News reported that the abortion-rights group Jane's Revenge had claimed responsibility for similar attacks.[7]
