“The Knights seek nothing less than the transformation of today’s culture into a new culture of life. And the foundation of this effort must be the bedrock of the inviolable dignity of human life at every stage and the realization that in the great family the Lord intends for his people, we are all our brother’s keeper.”
Carl A. Anderson.

w/Stephanie Gray
An Outstanding Defense of Human Life!
Stephanie Gray, internationally renowned speaker and author, applies the Socratic method and storytelling to the debate surrounding abortion. She invites the audience to be “pro-conversation” on a topic that can be one of the most divisive, and demonstrates that it is possible to be gracious and respectful when encountering different ideas. This talk draws on her experiences of traveling across the world and dialoguing with college students, hearing personal stories of poverty and sexual abuse, and sitting down for coffee to have friendly conversation with debate opponents; it reflects on the United Nations’ policies on human rights and examines the insights of psychiatrist and Holocaust-survivor Dr. Viktor Frankl. Stephanie Gray is a Canadian who has spent more than 15 years giving over 800 talks and debates, as well as hundreds of media interviews, on abortion to diverse audiences in the United States, Canada, Austria, Latvia, England, Ireland, Costa Rica and Guatemala. In university settings she has debated Dr. Fraser Fellows, a late-term abortionist, Ron Fitzsimmons, then-executive director of the National Coalition of Abortion Providers, Elizabeth Cavendish, then-legal director for NARAL Pro-Choice America, and Dr. Malcolm Potts, the first medical director for International Planned Parenthood Federation. She is author of “Love Unleashes Life: Abortion & the Art of Communicating Truth.”

The Susan B. Anthony List, is excited to announce the launch of its new website!
www.LozierInstitute.org is a comprehensive resource for all the latest news and research on life issues. We have a team of nearly 40 associate scientists, doctors, sociologists, bioethicists, attorneys, and other professionals who use the power of modern science, medicine, and policy research to spread the truth about life issues and advance the culture of life.
As the research arm of Susan B. Anthony List, the Charlotte Lozier Institute conducts groundbreaking research which is then passed on to our pro-life allies on Capitol Hill. This research provides our pro-life champions with the tools they need to confidently respond when pro-abortion legislators repeat the talking points of Planned Parenthood and the Abortion Industry.
There used to be only one resource for researchers, the media, and the public to find information about abortion – the Guttmacher Institute, the former research arm of Planned Parenthood. Since our founding in 2011, the Charlotte Lozier Institute has become an alternative voice for reliable data and truthful research for policy makers, researchers, the media, and the public.
Our new site is designed to give first-time and returning visitors an easier way to find CLI publications by topic, by author, and by publication type. As CLI’s output has increased, we have new materials in the form of policy papers, fact sheets, legal briefs, maps and articles on current issues and events. Our aim is to keep up with the full range of life issues, gathering insights from science and data analysis to help readers negotiate the minefield of issues from conception to the end of life. We believe you will find a quality and depth of material that make our work of enduring value in some of the most contentious debates today.
Please take a look around our new site and be sure to bookmark it in your browser. Feel free to give us feedback so we can continue to make it more useful to you!
For Life,
Chuck Donovan
President, Charlotte Lozier Institute
