Birthright International is an international organization of crisis pregnancy centers. It offers a range of services 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.[1]

The organization, founded in 1968 by Louise Summerhill, has its international headquarters in Toronto, Ontario Canada, and has nearly 300 chapters worldwide,[2] primarily in Canada and the United States,[2] but also in South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, and Colombia.

Birthright has a philosophy of avoiding direct involvement in pro-life or pro-choice political advocacy.[3]
