Abby Johnson has always been fiercely determined to help women in need. This desire is what led Abby to a career with Planned Parenthood, our nation’s largest abortion provider, and caused her to flee the organization, becoming an outspoken advocate for the pro-life movement.
During her eight years with Planned Parenthood, Abby quickly rose through the organization’s ranks and became a clinic director. However, Abby became increasingly disturbed by what she witnessed. Abortion was a product Planned Parenthood was selling, not an unfortunate necessity they were fighting to decrease. Still, Abby loved the women that entered her clinic and her co-workers. Despite a growing unrest within her, she stayed on and strove to serve women in crisis.
Planned Parenthood did not take Abby’s departure sitting down. The organization is fully aware the workers who leave are their greatest threat. They took immediate action to silence Abby with a gag order and brought her to court. The lawsuit was quickly seen as the sham it was and it was ultimately thrown out of court.
The media was, and continues to be, intensely interested in Abby’s story as well as her continued efforts to advocate for the unborn and help clinic workers escape the abortion industry. She is a frequently requested guest on Fox News and a variety of other shows. She is also the author of the nationally best-selling book, Unplanned, which chronicles both her experiences within Planned Parenthood and her dramatic exit.
Today, Abby travels across the globe sharing her story, educating the public on pro-life issues, advocating for the unborn, and reaching out to abortion clinic staff who still work in the industry. She is the founder of And Then There Were None, a ministry designed to assist abortion clinic workers in transitioning out of the industry. Since 2012, this ministry has helped over 680 workers leave the abortion industry. In 2019, Abby also founded ProLove Ministries, an umbrella organization to house pro-life projects and affiliations that fill gaps in the pro-life movement. Abby lives in Texas with her husband and eight precious children.
TRAVELS FROM TEXAS
"Abby hit it out of the park with her presentation to our audience. Powerful!!"
"Abby delivered an outstanding keynote. There were times of silence when you could hear a pin drop in the banquet hall. She was captivating and convicting at the same time that I believe led hearts to give sacrificially."
"We heard from many that Abby was the best speaker we’ve ever had! We have been told through tears that they had no idea what Planned Parenthood did, and are signing up to volunteer...She is a great speaker- knows when to lighten the topic with humor, and was honest and transparent and humble. We were very happy with her as our speaker. We heard of two couples that had decided beforehand what to donate, and both couples looked at each other and said “Double it.”
