Brenna Lewis - 24 Mar 2020

“Students for Life of America is going to meet the Pro-Life Generation where they are – online and at home,” said Students for Life of America’s Kristan Hawkins. “For years, we’ve offered online education and training for pro-life young people, but, now, we are going to supersize our programming through strategic partnerships.”

 

Students for Life of America President Kristan Hawkins said that the Pro-Life Generation and advocates from across the nation will have an expanded package of online events and trainings as Americans spend more time at home as a result of the Coronavirus. “As campuses across the country shut down or pivot to online education, Students for Life of America’s team is doing the same, expanding our materials so that the Pro-Life Generation can be training for the day after Roe and for when we can return to our communities,” said Hawkins. “We are sticking together! Just virtually…and with hand sanitizer.”

This year, Students for Life of America is going to have 250,000 conversations about abortion, and we are already close to halfway there … but we are taking our efforts on-line. There are plenty of ways to continue the abortion conversation from home, even while “social distancing,” using calls, texts, emails, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Tik Tok, and whatever else people are on these days. SFLA is getting creative with innovative tools to start a conversation. Students for Life members are encouraged to pledge and log conversations they are having in-person or online here at the TALK website. At #TALK online and for access to graphics, content, videos and visuals that can help you begin talking.

To increase conservations with young people undecided about abortion and ensure Students for Life reaches our 250,000 conversation goal for the 2019-2020 school year, Students for Life has already revealed their brand new “Ask a Pro-Lifer” website where SFLA team members are answering any questions on weekdays from 8AM to 10PM EST about abortion and the pro-life movement via text message, online chat, and email.
