The UnLetter Follow-Up
"Working the Right to Life booth at the fair is always a rewarding experience. Many people come to see us every year with their own personal stories. We do not know just how many people have been affected, but we do know a number of people whose minds have been changed. It may be that you are just the one who is needed at the booth at one particular time." --Pro-Life of Southern Colorado
Share with Your Local Pro-Life Groups New Evidence-Based Materials to Take to the Fair
This is just a last-minute reminder of new life-saving, culture-rocking materials to share at the fair. They are based on academic research, put into user-friendly format for busy people. Perhaps most significant is research that most abortions are unwanted or coerced. Other evidence suggests that many -- even in America -- are forced. Few Americans know this!
To complete this "big picture," our materials include "post-abortion" evidence, too, when abortion's prelude only gets more heartbreaking and dangerous for women and families. This exposes abortion's assault on the rights and lives of both babies and mothers.
By sharing facts about coercion (illegal, even under current lax abortion laws) and about abortion's serious, even deadly aftereffects, you can:
-
Deter those who coerce or consider abortion.
-
Bring new hope to individuals and families already devastated.
-
Pave the way for laws that protect the rights of both women and babies today and in the long-run.
The Elliot Institute has condensed over 20 years' work into evidence-backed and user-friendly resources, ideal for general audiences such as those at the fair.

Conversation Starters or Prizes
Get people thinking and talking from a fresh perspective! The UnChoice message exposes the myth of "choice" or even "safe" abortion by sharing evidence of its assault on women's rights, too, including unwanted abortions plus heartbreaking and serious aftereffects.
The UnChoice button, bumper sticker, etc., can start conversations by exposing the "choice" myth. See more "The UnChoice" products here. The broken-heart message also helps fence-sitters reconsider their "pro-woman" ambivalence. See more "heart icon" products here.
