This past week, UNO partnered with the student-run Midland Sexual Health Research Collaboration to host "Sexploration Week" on campus. Each day had a separate topic, ranging from "Be Mine if You're in to it," to "Abortion 101" to "Sex Work is Real Work." Mavericks Students for Life decided to counter falsehood with truth by hosting events of their own. Although the university told them they submitted their event application too late to table across from Planned Parenthood on the 13th, they stood outside the building (in the freezing cold!) and handed out SFLA "We don't need Planned Parenthood" flyers, as well as a plethora of other information regarding surgical abortion, the abortion pill, and post abortive healing. Often, they were able to put resources right into the hands of those leaving the building with abortion "fact" sheets from MSHRC which inaccurately stated that 1 in 4 people (not just women) have an abortion. Later in the day, they held a "Psychology and Sex" talk given by a licensed counselor at a local women's resource center. Hosting this event allowed them to build bridges and find common ground with a leading member of MSHRC, who attended the talk. On Friday, MSFL hosted a PonC table with resources for pregnant and parenting students, to showcase the supportive and compassionate nature of the Pro-Life Generation. All in all, this group completely deserved the Rapid Response award they won from SFLA for their enthusiastic response to those challenging the truth of the pro-life movement.

Why Students for Life?

79% of Planned Parenthoods are 5 miles from a college. 52% of abortion seeking women are under 25. College and high school is a time when worldviews are challenged and formed. Culture is shaped by the young. If we want to end abortion, we have to start with the youth. Read more.

How do we plan to reach an entire generation?

Millennials crave authentic relationships and community. In the past 11 years, Students for Life has experienced rapid growth, 100 to over 1,200 groups on campuses, because we’ve relied on a proven three-step evangelization model: Belong, Believe, Behave.
