Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Bri Stensrud, Director, Women of Welcome
Q: What sparked your shift from advocacy focused on abortion to a broader mission that includes migrants and vulnerable families?
She describes a pivotal experience of witnessing the conditions of 11 and 13-year-old mothers south of the border which made her realize the need to address a full spectrum of human dignity beyond the womb, leading to involvement in adoption, foster care, and later immigration advocacy.
Bri Stensrud, Director, Women of Welcome
Q: How has your faith shaped who you are and what you do in the world?
Bri explains that her Christian faith anchors her in service and shapes how she sees people and the world, guiding her from traditional pro-life beginnings to a broader, holistic approach that includes caring for immigrants and refugees as fellow image-bearers.
Leyla Hussein, Founder of The Dahlia Project
Q: How has your faith shaped who you are and what you do in the world?
Faith, for me, represents hope and belief in the good; it informs a personal stance of compassion, perseverance, and a commitment to protect others, especially girls and women, from violence.
Abby Maxman, President, Oxfam America
Q: Why is investing in women and girls so foundational to humanitarian work?
Because when women and girls have voice and choice, households and communities become healthier and wealthier, and gender-responsive development leads to lasting peace and progress.
