SIGNS
OF LIFE
You can make a difference!
Actors,
writers, producers, and professionals
from all aspects of the
entertainment industry and communications arts, working together to speak
up for the defenseless.
Signs of Life is an informal
consortium of communication arts and entertainment professionals dedicated
to fostering an understanding of, and social regard for, innocent human
life.
We welcome actors, writers, producers,
directors, lawyers; in short, production professionals on every level of
mass media including film, television, and radio who wish to see innocent
human life treated with dignity and respect. The goal of Signs of
Life is to inspire reverence for innocent human lives.
How do you influence Hollywood?
In 1995 an informal group of
gay activists formed "Out There," a network of studio
professionals, writers and actors. Their goal – impact Hollywood. They
launched political initiatives and found ways to inject a pro-gay message
into the entertainment content on which they worked, as well as
influencing their peers in the industry.
ECO, Earth Communications Office, in Los Angeles and
Nashville, is a
consortium of more than 1000 motion picture and entertainment
professionals: actors, writers, directors, producers, lawyers, and others
who are finding ways to get the environmental message into their work.
Have these efforts been successful?
By any standard they have been. Should only these and other ‘politically
correct’ and ‘socially popular’ messages be promoted? Perhaps it is
more appropriate to ask, "Is it these efforts that have in fact
made these issues socially popular?" You be the judge.
We provide numerous
opportunities for entertainment industry professionals to network and
support one another. Some of the finest material produced in literature
and by the Hollywood community has reflected the dignity of the human
person, the value of human life, and the significance and power of
individual effort.

Our script writing competition encourages the development of dynamic
material that is both entertaining and compelling in its assertion of
human worth and dignity.
We are single-issue in our
focus and non-sectarian. We are dedicated to protecting the dignity and
value of the human person from conception to natural death.
People are not mere things
to be disposed of; they should not be treated as such.
We network in a variety of
formats from informal coffees to conferences. We ascribe to the
non-sectarian, single issue approach of the National Right to Life
Committee, which welcomes people of all backgrounds who wish to restore
the once commonly regarded standard that in society innocent
human life should be given our first consideration.
"The care of human life
and
happiness, and not their
destruction, is the first and only
legitimate object of good government."
Thomas
Jefferson, to the citizens of
Washington County, Maryland
March 31, 1809
