Response to Not Born Yet
Having now completed the run of the first two advertising campaigns in our Not Born Yet Series, it has been encouraging to see that our campaigns are producing a response from the general public!

People have emailed their own stories to us and these have been added to the website. Conversations have been generated on the letters to the Editor page of the Toowoomba Chronicle in the SMS section. One excited father of a child who has a disability wrote to us, "I have just seen your latest advert in relation to the parents of the child with Downs Syndrome.  I wanted to say THANK YOU! The latest campaign of "Not Born Yet" is sensational and a long time coming."

Going Further Afield!
An opportunity has opened for the Not Born Yet advertisements to be shown on Channel 10 in Launceston, Tasmania.  Through a very enthusiastic contact there, free air time has been given to Emily's Voice.  We are grateful to be able to trial the ads in another location. 
 
Conversations in Your World 
We would encourage you to generate conversations about Emily's Voice in your world, just like the ones reported above in Toowoomba's newspaper.  Talk about the ads as you gather with relatives, friends and colleagues.  Spread the word that people are being challenged and encouraged by the advertising campaigns. 

We thank you for standing with Emily's Voice during this pioneering time.  Our vision of "changing the social consciousness of the entire nation and for ordinary people to fall in love with the unborn" is huge. It's great to know there's so much support as we work toward making this vision a reality.

Last weekend, Pregnancy Help Australia held their annual conference for affiliated pro life pregnancy support centres. The conference celebrated the work of hundreds of compassionate counsellors and support workers around Australia who assist women to defy the pressure to abort by providing the material and emotional support that is so often lacking. Over 75 delegates learn new skills and encouraged one another to continue with their life-saving work.

Pregnancy support services are provided by volunteer counsellors and generally exist on the donations of their supporters. If you would like to donate to a service near you, or are interested in volunteer counselling, visit the PHA website and contact a pregnancy support service in your area.

Pregnancy Help provides training and support to affiliated pregnancy support agencies, all of whom subscribe to the pro life approach and do not refer for abortions.
