Washington, D.C. (30 September 2010) – American Life League announced today that Rock for Life, which has operated as a project of American Life League for the last 11 years, has now officially separated from American Life League and will continue its pro-life mission to young people as a separate organization.
“We are excited that Rock for Life has developed to the point that it will be carrying on its unique outreach under the direction of its original founders,” said Judie Brown, president of American Life League. “Rock for Life’s outreach to youth through music has been a wonderful part of our efforts. We believe this move is best for the Rock for Life organization and for the babies. We look forward to collaborating with them on projects in the future.”
“We are thankful for the support Judie Brown’s American Life League has shown us throughout the years,” said Erik Whittington, Rock for Life’s executive director. “We wish them and their staff the best as they work to defeat the culture of death in our country. American Life League took a chance on Rock for Life in 1998, helping us to grow and do all the ‘crazy’ pro-life things we have done over the years. I look back at the last 11-plus years with American Life League and think, ‘WOW, what an amazing time!’”
Rock for Life is promoting human rights for all people, born and preborn, by engaging the culture through music and education. Rock for Life’s message is the personhood message that each and every human being is a person from his or her biological beginning. Rock for Life can be found on the web at www.rockforlife.org.
American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to death.
