Spiritual Youth for Reproductive Freedom (SYRF), a project of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Freedom, will be holding a national summit meeting for college age students from June 5-7 in Washington, DC. What is SYRF? From their website:
Spiritual Youth for Reproductive Freedom (SYRF) educates, organizes and empowers youth and young adults (ages 16-30) to put their faith into action and advocate for pro-choice social justice. SYRF is a program of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice.
SYRF creates venues for youth education and activism, designs youth-specific materials, and builds lasting relationships with youth oriented organizations, campus clergy, and youth programs of our denominations. Since young people lead this program, SYRF lifts up pro-faith youth and young adult perspectives on reproductive choice issues and provides young people with tools and opportunities to advocate for choice on their campuses, high schools, congregations and communities.
The summit is designed to teach college age students how to be effective advocates for reproductive rights in their faith communities. Click here to download the flyer. Pass it around your to youth groups and help get the word out.
