This year’s featured speaker, Kristan Hawkins, has always been a pas-sionate advocate for the unborn. She is a Christian, wife, mother and anti-abortion grassroots activist, author, and speaker. She was hired in 2006 to launch Students for Life of America’s full-time operation. Since then, she has helped the organization grow to helping thousands of students across America have a voice to bring awareness to the injustice of abortion; as well as support for mothers and their children, born and pre-born.

She graduated from Bethany College in 2005 and after college she served at the Republican National Committee and as a presidential appointee in the George W. Bush administration at the Department of Health and Human Services. She recently served on then-candidate Don-ald Trump’s Pro-Life Advisory Council. She is the author of Courageous: Students Abolishing Abortion in this Lifetime. She has been interviewed on Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, the Today Show, CBS, ABC, and HBO. Kristan regularly speaks at pro-life conventions and events across the United States including many college campuses like Yale, Harvard, Dart-mouth, and UC-Berkeley. She has done this all while being a wife to her high school sweetheart (Jonathan), and raising her four children.

My visit to EPS was everything I needed. I expected just a preg-nancy test and ultrasound, but I’m glad someone could talk to me about how I was feeling and my thoughts on the pregnancy.
