It's important to understand that human life is sacred and has great dignity because it has a eternal destiny. Taking innocent human life, as in abortion, is gravely disordered. Human life should be protected.
Conversion is key. Asking God to free us from our hesitancy or reluctance to accept the good news of the dignity of the human person helps. This is especially true for women who have had abortions. They are in our prayers. (cf. Evang.Vit. 99) Circumstances influence decisions, and they may still have the wound. What they did was wrong, but giving over to repentance and entrusting their child to the Father of mercies will help them a ton. They can be the strongest of proponents of the dignity of life.
Witnessing is an imperative. First by having children, a natural way to witness. By appreciating adoption. By speaking up in public. Going to the March which is a source solidarity and encouragement.
