Center for Bio-Ethical Reform

The Center for Bio-Ethical Reform (CBR) is an American pro-life organization promulgating views of the right to life for the unborn, disabled, infirm, aged and other vulnerable groups. CBR was founded in July 1990 as a privately-funded, non-profit educational corporation. Its slogan is "abortion represents an evil so inexpressible that words fail us when attempting to describe its horror. Until abortion is seen, it will never be understood." The Executive Director of CBR is Gregg Cunningham, a former member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives who has also held a number of other government positions. CBR is strictly non-violent.

Projects
CBR develops educational resources and displays educational media. Their projects include the Reproductive "Choice" Campaign, the Genocide Awareness Project, Matthew 28:20, and the AbortionNO web site.

CBR also publishes press releases and conducts seminars condemning abortion and advocating for disabled and elderly rights.

The CBR has controversially compared Nazi genocide victims to aborted fetuses, in the context of its "Genocide Awareness Project." This has led to the inference that CBR is comparing pro-choice activists to Nazis.

Graphic images
CBR advocates displaying pictures of aborted fetuses, and this has resulted in CBR being a relatively controversial organization. CBR considers the pictures necessary in order to induce people to understand what abortion really is.

On the organization's web site are posted positive comments about CBR's methods, including comments of women who say that they finally realized that they had been misled about abortion, that they used to be pro-choice but now would never have an abortion, that they have cancelled abortions due to CBR's work. Some of those women say that they saw CBR photos outside an abortion clinic, and therefore refused to continue with the abortions they had planned to obtain.
