We can't win without them!

The role of youth in the pro-life movement is as simple as that. The time to train and equip the next generation of pro-life leaders is right now. Not two or ten or twenty years from now, but today, tomorrow, and in the weeks and months to come.

Fortunately, our task is not a difficult one. A 2003 Gallup poll showed us that 72% of American teenagers think abortion is morally wrong. This is nothing short of amazing! A majority of Generation Y is pro-life. Apparently we have already reached many of their minds. Now it's time to engage their hearts.

Our game plan is simple: recruit, educate, motivate, organize, and encourage.

Let's start with recruiting. Every team wants to have the best and brightest on their roster. We are no different, except that we're fighting for more than a trophy or medal: we're fighting for the very lives of the unborn and vulnerable. We need to reach pro-life teens, turning them from spectators into active team members.

They're out there in your churches, schools, and communities. Some may be as close as your dinner table! Go find them!!

Educationalways the key to winning for lifeis especially critical in working with pro-life youth. The more they know, the better equipped they are to reach their peers, teachers, professors, and the world with the message of life. Let us not forget that today's teenagers are tomorrow's doctors, lawyers, journalists, judges, teachers, and clergy.
