Nov 6 – Dubuque County Right to Life

Dubuque County Right to LifeThis evening Hannah Brehm, Executive Director of Dubuque County Right to Life, spoke to the community about her work and experiences in the local right to life movement. She shared with us the educational mission of Dubuque County Right to Life particularly regarding the dangers of abortion, euthanasia, and infanticide.  She gave examples of efforts including speakers, billboards, and bus trips to the National March for Life in Washington D.C.. She also gave an overview of the various pro life organizations in Iowa and how they work together. More personally, Hannah told her story of getting involved in the right to life effort beginning with a trip to the March for Life as an 8th grader. She also shared anecdotes that have come from her answer to the common conversational question, “So, what do you do?”
