A Note for Educators
As an educator, you want your students to have access to information on the most important issues we all face.
Issues concerning life are among the most critical. There is a pro-life perspective that your students need to be aware of.
What does it mean to be “pro-life”?
Being “pro-life” means advocating for the rights of the handicapped, the aged, the sick and the unborn in our society. It means speaking on behalf of those who often cannot speak for themselves.
It also means calling into question such practices as abortion, genetic engineering, in vitro fertilization and euthanasia.
Hamilton Right to Life is an educational organization concerned with bringing knowledge about pro-life issues to our community. We would welcome the opportunity to address your students about life issues in Canada.
Our mandate is to educate the public about life issues. We would welcome the opportunity to address your students about life issues in Canada.
Aren’t these issues too controversial to discuss with students?
