Womb Service (Guest: Emily Berning)

Care Curve Reveals Warmth and Compassion Trounces Cold Bureaucracy and Cash

As the media revisits the aftermath of Dobbs v. Jackson, most headlines focus on what was taken away. But Emily and Nathan Berning, founders of Let Them Live, are focused on what’s being built in its place: a nationwide movement of life-affirming, community-powered solutions that are outpacing Planned Parenthood—and doing it without taxpayer dollars or political division.

Let Them Live has already saved over 800 babies from abortion by doing something radically simple: listening to moms in crisis and meeting their financial needs directly. From rent payments to job assistance, maternity housing to baby supplies, their work highlights what real healthcare and compassion look like—far from the billion-dollar abortion industry.

Now, the Bernings are available for interviews to explain why:

Pregnancy centers and maternity homes are stepping up—offering housing, employment assistance, parenting support, and hope without killing.

  • Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) outmatch Planned Parenthood in services, patients served, and affordability—without committing a single abortion.
  • Volunteer-driven care is defeating bureaucratic neglect, replacing cold institutions with human connection and real solutions.
  • “This is healthcare” isn’t a slogan—it’s a reality. What’s replacing Planned Parenthood isn’t theocracy—it’s compassion, innovation, and efficiency.

The post-Roe landscape isn’t a void. It’s a transformation. And Let Them Live is on the front lines of that shift—helping create a culture that stands with women, instead of profiting from their despair.

If you’re covering abortion, healthcare, or the rise of alternative care models, Emily and Nathan offer a fresh, data-backed, and powerfully human perspective that cuts through the noise.

They’re available for print, radio, TV, and podcast interviews nationwide.

Let Them Live exists to help abortion-minded women choose life by meeting their financial needs and giving them the hope they’ve been denied by the abortion industry.
