LEADING TO WIN TRACK

- Messaging to the Movement with Michele Hendrickson, Mary Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement
With Roe’s reversal what is the pro-life movements next big goal? Equal Rights for All, recognized through the 14th Amendment of the Constitution! What does that look like? How do we get there? And how do we make this the North Star to guide our movement?
- Kristan Hawkins, Students for Life Action
In 2024 abortion is on the ballot federally with a presidential election and also in the states with ballot referendums on abortion becoming an increasingly popular strategy for abortion advocates. Find out what do you need to know and how can you make a difference in 2024
- Tyson Langhofer, Alliance Defending Freedom
The fight to protect every life is not going to be easy, and it will not be without setbacks. But we must never give up because every life is worth protecting.
- Moderator: Bridget Weisenburger, Director of Campaigns & Partnerships, The Heritage Foundation; Panelists TBA
When a US President is elected to office there is more to the duties and responsibilities of the Executive Branch than most people are aware. From appointments to head Health and Human Services to the Department of Justice that we all see, to the staffing of those offices that are behind the scenes. As Ronald Reagan’s director of personnel, Scott Faulkner, once said, “personnel is policy.” You could be the personnel that affects policy, join this panel to find out how!
- Titus Folks and Jordan Moorman, Students for Life Action
What does "winning" look like for the pro-life movement in 2024? Find out with the Students for Life Action team with insightful training, real case studies, and the marching orders you need to succeed to influence elections and legislation in the new year!
CHANGING MINDS TRACK
- Abby Johnson, And Then There Were None & ProLove Ministries
Creating a culture of life starts with love, building bridges, filling gaps, and changing hearts and minds by serving others well and holistically.
- Melissa Ohden, Abortion Survivors Network with abortion survivors Lauren Eden, Michelle Lyman, Kim Marvin, Michele Smith and Rosemarie Fenchel
Babies survive abortions--at all gestations--in all types of procedures. With the rise of chemical abortions, the incidence of failed, stopped and reversed abortions continues to climb. Hear from abortion survivors—the babies who survived their own abortions—about what they survived and what they want the world to know about their lives and the impact of the abortion attempt. Learn more about the groundbreaking research The Abortion Survivors Network has launched to shed light on the incidence of failed abortion, and how we need to work together to save the lives of abortion survivors in today’s post-Roe world from follow up abortions after a chemical abortion has failed.
- Camille Pauley, Healing the Culture
This workshop will equip students to engage in advanced pro-life conversations that will cover topics like engaging in conversations with aggressive pro-choice people on advanced bodily rights arguments, rare cases for abortion, and abortion as a solution to suffering. Camille will conclude with 15 minutes of Q & A.
- Katy Faust, Them Before Us; Erika Bachiochi, Author*
Join this panel of experts to understand how two profit-based industries, reproductive technology, and the abortion industry, have torn the social fabric of our nation. By commodifying children these industries have eroded the rights of the child, created a culture where a lack of full consent to the physical and psychological harm to women is the norm, and have put us on the path to the destruction of healthy fertility and healthy families. Find out what do you need to know to act in both big and small ways to protect children, mothers, and families.
- Damon Owens, Joyful Ever After
Discover the art of being human and working with the way our bodies were designed for life, marriage, and sex.
- Jay Watts, Merely Human Ministries
Learn how to defend your pro-life position and break down opposing arguments. If you are a seasoned pro-lifer or new to defending life this is for you! Be inspired to engage with passion, energy, and solid apologetics with those around you on abortion – we can create a culture of LIFE one conversation at a time.
SERVING WOMEN & SAVING LIVES TRACK
- Michele Hendrickson, Demetree Institute for Pro-Life Advancement; Kate Maloney, Abortion Free Cities; Panelists TBA
Yes, Really! There is a lot one person can do to shift culture in your city, despite the threat of state ballot referendums and dangerous abortion facilities. Join us to learn about the proven methods, strategic grassroots tools, and women-centered resources you can apply as soon as you return home.
- Jessica Andreae, ProLove Ministries; Robert Rector, The Heritage Foundation
What if we created a world where abortion wasn’t even an option someone would consider? That is the goal, to make abortion unthinkable! We do this by empowering women to choose life, supporting women and families through private and public programs, and radically changing the cultural conversation around unexpected pregnancy.
- Representatives from And Then There Were None: Caroline Strzesynski, Kara Germon, and Lupita Aguilar.
A panel of former abortion workers will share their firsthand knowledge and experiences so you can hear what the abortion industry doesn’t want you to know. You'll leave empowered with new ways to outmaneuver the strategies of the abortion industry. You will also fall in love with the humanity, healing, and honesty of these women and insight into the workers and other pro-life supporters in your communities.
