Pro-Life and Pro-Family Youth Support Needed at the UN!

Please Spread the Word to Youth Around the World!

Pro-Life and Pro-Family Youth Are Needed at the UN!

Pro-life and pro-family youth and youth groups around the world have an exciting opportunity to make an important contribution to the UN High Level Meeting on Youth coming up in New York in July 25th and 26th.

We are asking all readers of “The Family Watch” to help us spread the word to as many youth as possible.

Youth groups from around the world have submitted statements telling UN Member States what they want governments to do for youth and how to make the world a better place.

Unfortunately, the sexual “rights” activists are up to their usual tricks and have helped youth submit statements calling upon governments to grant sexual rights and abortion rights to children and youth among other things.  They will be claiming, as they always do, that these views represent the majority of youth around the world.

The July conference will be packed with youth delegates sponsored and trained by UN agencies and NGOs such as International Planned Parenthood to lobby for “sexual rights” including abortion on demand, graphic sexuality education for children as young as age ten, special rights for diverse genders, implementation of the radical Yogykarta Principles and a number of other elements that comprise the radical sexual rights agenda.

These carefully groomed youth will falsely claim that they are speaking on behalf of the world’s young people.

We must counteract their efforts and show UN Member States that the majority of the world’s youth want societies built upon strong families and the protection of life.

We invite all youth and/or youth organizations to sign the youth statement submitted to the UN by the Youth for Life and Family Caucus which FWI is supporting.  Click here to read the statement. To sign it, click here.

Those youth and youth groups that sign the statement will also become a member of this caucus, adding to its numbers thereby helping counteract the voices of the radical pro-abortion and anti-family statements submitted by other youth.

The more youth groups and individuals we can get to participate as part of this coalition, the more effectively we can make sure that the outcome document from this conference is positive and reflects the strong support around the world among youth for life and family values.

The input from youth around the world is supposed to be considered by governments in putting together this outcome document.  This is especially critical because it is likely that it will be submitted to the UN General Assembly for consideration.

Family Watch is helping the caucus collect signatures all the way through July 21st.  The signatures will then be submitted to the UN showing the worldwide support for the Youth for Life and Family Caucus statement.

Please help us create a huge outpouring from individual youth (defined by the UN as people between the ages of 15 and 24 years of age) and youth-led groups everywhere to sign the statement in support of life, the family, and family values!

People frequently ask us what they can do to help protect and promote the family and family values.  This is one simple but important thing that everyone can do.

If you are a youth yourself or connected to a youth-led organization please read and sign the coalition’s statement.

Please forward this alert to all the youth and youth groups you can to help us spread the word.

We have Family Watch subscribers in over 170 countries.  It would be wonderful to have youth and youth groups in each of these countries sign onto the youth caucus statement!

More information about the conference is available here.

Time is short.  Please pass this on to as many youth groups as possible and encourage them to participate!

Thank you for whatever you can do to help.

Sincerely,

Sharon Slater
President
