An anti-abortion group called Created Equal visited Youngstown State University on Tuesday.

The group set up posters of fetuses in front of the climbing wall at YSU’s Andrews Recreation Center and talked to students heading to and from classes.

Group members advocated against abortion and discussed “life after Issue 1” with the students, according to the organization’s president Mark Harrington.

“With the passage of Issue 1, abortion-on-demand has been enshrined in Ohio’s Constitution. Issue 1’s passage makes it especially important to educate students on the reality of abortion so they will not kill their pre-born babies. Created Equal’s campus outreaches are designed to change the hearts and minds of our future decision-makers and leaders and make abortion unthinkable,” said Harrington.
