Speech Contest

Each year Right to Life of Indianapolis holds a Speech Contest for 10th, 11th and 12th grade students. The contest is open to students who reside in Marion County, or any of the bordering counties.   Although 10th grade students are allowed to participate, only students in the 11th and 12th years are permitted to advance to the state competition.

Last year's competition was held Saturday, April 16, 2011 at Lumen Christi Catholic School, Indianapolis.
Topics: Pro-life Views of Abortion, Infanticide, Euthanasia, or Stem Cell Research

The 2012 Speech competition will be scheduled for April.
