Monica Snyder
Reaching beyond religious audiences

Practical, persuasive communication

A unique perspective

Herb Geraghty
Unmatched urgency and personal sacrifice
“I listen to a lot of pro-life people in person and online, and not all of them get across the urgency and the emergency of this issue. Herb does. I have huge respect for his advocacy and sacrifice: being willing to give up his own freedom in order to prevent the killing of the unborn is inspiring.” – HTBPL Webinar Participant
Focused strategy you can use right away
“Loved how pointed and actionable it was. Herb provided three very clear points about how the movement can better embrace the strengths of secular pro-lifers. He offers simple, easy ideas to get working on immediately.” – LIFE Talk, National March for Life Event
Clear communication and motivational science
“I really enjoyed the whole thing. It was informing, motivational, and inspiring. I loved the emphasis that everyone should be pro-life, and the science and philosophy to support it, all delivered in a relaxed atmosphere.” – VAPJ Central VA Presentation
Michelle Buenrostro
Intertwining facts with a powerful personal story
“Your communication of the facts, intertwined with your powerful personal story, provided a thought-provoking argument… It was great to hear questions in the audience from people who weren’t pro-life.” – Morgan Gagnon, Princeton Pro-Life
Equipping the secular voice
“I learned a lot and now feel more confident in giving a secular argument against abortion. Thank you for your work in furthering the movement!” – Princeton Event Attendee
And much more
- “As someone who grew up in a pro-choice culture, the thought experiments were helpful.”
- “I appreciated how clearly the arguments were laid out. It was very easy to follow.”
- “It was thoughtful and well-reasoned. It included a lot of data.”
