Secular Pro-Life’s Monica Snyder recently interviewed Marcie Little of Colorado for Life, a new organization working to protect unborn children in a state with extreme pro-abortion policies.

“I’m here to listen, not to judge.” Interview with a young Catholic sidewalk counselor

June 29, 2020/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Maria on the right. Signs read “I’m here to listen, not to judge” and “We bring hope, love, and support.” How did you get started sidewalk counseling? What draws you to the sidewalk compared to other types of pro-life work? I got started with sidewalk advocacy when I joined my pro-life student group in college: […]

Interview with a post-abortive sidewalk counselor: love, not shame, is the key

June 24, 2020/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Interviewer’s note: study after study confirm many women choose abortion because they feel they don’t have the resources to care for a child. Sidewalk counselors work to connect these women to resources in their communities. This work transforms—and literally saves—lives. People who aren’t involved in the pro-life movement (and even some within it) tend to believe that those who stand […]

Interview with a secular sidewalk counselor

June 15, 2020/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Interviewer’s note: People who aren’t involved in the pro-life movement—and even some within it—tend to believe that those standing outside abortion clinics are there to shame and frighten women seeking abortion. Videos of street “preachers” screaming at everyone tend to be much more viral than depictions of people quietly holding signs offering resources. I’m interested […]

Interview: Pro-life Democrats reflect on the Democratic Party and the pro-life movement

February 22, 2020/0 Comments/in Uncategorized /by Monica Snyder

Secular Pro-Life strongly encourages pro-lifers from different backgrounds to seek to understand one another and form coalitions in the fight against abortion. SPL’s main focus, obviously, is on different religious backgrounds, but the longer we’ve done this work the more we’ve realized how important it is to amplify the voices of all kinds of non-traditional […]
