Time: April 25, 2009 all day Location: University of California, Berkley Organized By: co-sponsored by Live Action and California Students for Life
Event Description: The event is intended for "anyone who wants to end abortion" and not just college students. It reportedly will feature student activist training, interactive break-out sections, and speeches from the "most dedicated" pro-life advocates of the present day.
Speakers include Lila Rose, president of Live Action; Rev. Walter Hoye of Issues4Life, who is currently serving a 30-day jail sentence for violating Oakland's 'bubble ordinance' outside an abortion clinic; Kristan Hawkins, executive director of Students for Life of America; Gregg Cunningham, executive director of the Center for Bioethical Reform; and Gianna Jessen, an abortion survivor.
Preliminary plans have scheduled the conference for the 150-seat capacity Lipman Room in Barrows Hall on the University of California at Berkeley campus. David Daleiden, conference spokesman and director of research for Live Action, said any change in location will be announced before April 25, the day of the conference. |
