"The common outcry, which is justly made on behalf of human rights - for example the right to health, to home, to work, to family, to culture - is false and illusory if the right to life, the most basic and fundamental right and the condition for all other personal rights, is not defended with maximum determination."

About BCRTL The Baxter County Right to Life (BCRTL) is the official Baxter County Chapter of Arkansas Right to Life (ARTL).
BCRTL is dedicated to protecting human life. Our primary purpose is to educate through the presentation of detailed and factual information about fetal development, abortion, alternatives to abortion, infanticide, euthanasia, and related issues, upon which individuals and the general public may make informed decisions.
Our activities consist of education, expanding legislative awareness (via newsletters, this website, and telephone trees), referrals to crisis pregnancy centers, and prayer.
In June, 2010 the BCRTL participated in the local Red, White and Blue parade with a tractor and wagon filled with people promoting life. In Aug, 2010, BCRTL held its fourth annual "Brats for Life" sale with the Knights of Columbus. This fund raiser is used to promote life issues, publish LIFElines, sponsor County Fair exhibit, purchase Life Chain signs, etc. The Knights have been strong supporters of our mission to educate young people and keeping the pro-life message before the community.
In Sept, 2020, BCRTL ran a very successful booth at the Baxter County Fair Grounds. On Sunday, Oct 3rd, we held our annual Life Chain as a silent expression of opposition to the practice of abortion in America. This year an unusual situation occurred. On the same date, a local Ozark TEA Party held a rally with 2000 people in attendance. At the beginning of their event, they acknowledged the people who were at the very same time standing for life in the Life Chain. They read scripture promoting life and then prayed both for the unborn, their mothers, for all those standing in the life chin as a silent witness, and for America and the day that our government stops funding for abortions and supporting agencies liked Planned Parenthood which promotes and performs abortions.
We work with ARTL leadership, local churches, and other pro-life groups to find positive solutions to the problems of teen sexuality, "problem" pregnancies, poverty, birth defects, euthanasia, and related issues. We seek solutions that are consistent with our affirmation that ALL human life is precious.
We support a Human Life Amendment to the U.S. Constitution to make possible legal protection of all human beings and educated citizens to take constructive citizen action to protect the most basic human right - LIFE itself.
"More Than A Baby Dies" by Gene McCoy: The primary and obvious focus of the display we are dedicating here today is upon the millions of babies who have been brutally and savagely murdered upon the altar of “Convenience” and “Women’s Rights.” But there are other victims besides the babies. We should also here commemorate every survivor of abortion, a part of whom also dies when a baby is aborted. I refer, of course, to post-abortive women. But that group comprises fewer than half of the post-abortive casualties. My focus is upon the post-abortive men who are commonly overlooked, if even considered, in discussions about abortion. They have been accurately described as the “forgotten fathers.” Consider further, however, the fact that more than a person dies when an abortion occurs. There are valuable ideals and principles that also die. . . .[Full Text]2009 Speech at the 4,000 Crosses for Life exhibit sponsored by Baxter County Right to Life.
