Claire Keyes reports, "Most of my life's work has been in abortion. Although I have been the Executive Director of Allegheny Reproductive Health Center in Pittsburgh for nearly 30 years, my heart," she says, "has always been in counseling." For the past decade she has been training counselors; she has presented at both the National Abortion Federation and the National Coalition of Abortion Providers, focusing on new paradigms for healing spiritually and emotionally after abortion as well as men's issues. Most recently she created the only pro-choice site for men, www.MenAndAbortion.com, along with Arthur Shostak, PhD.
