Learn how to generate light, not heat, in your conversations about abortion. 

Relational Approach

Our experienced trainers will teach you how to discuss the issue of abortion with relational sensitivity, helping you have meaningful conversations with a lasting impact.

Distinctive Training

This mentor-guided experience goes beyond theoretical knowledge. We emphasize learning by doing through interactive role-play exercises to prepare you for your next conversation.

Whether you’re new to the dialogue or looking to sharpen your skills…

Drawing from thousands of conversations with pro-choice advocates, our trainers will teach you what we've learned about building rapport, communicating ideas effectively, and challenging perspectives in a way that helps others feel safe to reconsider their views.

“Last school year I had the opportunity of attending a JFA workshop… I cannot even begin to describe the ways we’ve seen hearts changed and fruitful convos had. I’m beyond grateful for all the skills because they truly have been transformative in the way we connect with our peers!”
— Ally, UC Berkeley, 2023
“I thought I knew a lot about discussing abortion, but this seminar really opened my eyes to some key concepts I was missing.”
— Patrick, JFA Seminar Participant, 2018
