Excerpt from Introduction to Tool Kit:


A cold goes away by itself. A skinned knee is healed with a bandage and first aid cream. Yet there are persisting medical conditions that no doctor or medicine can cure. For many of these conditions, science turns to stem cell research with hope.

Imagine a child with diabetes avoiding the burdens of testing and injections because a stem cell implant supplements a failing pancreas, generating insulin.

Imagine a friend with the stiffness and shaking of Parkinson’s disease whose stem cell implant restores dopamine production to the brain stimulating the return of normal movement.

Imagine a neighbor with a spinal cord injury whose stem cell implant mends a damaged myelin sheath allowing his limbs, once paralyzed, to move again…..


Stem Cell Toolkit


People facing juvenile diabetes, serious burns, Parkinson’s disease and other life-threatening and life-altering medical conditions turn to embryonic stem cell research with hope for a cure. Stem Cell Research: A Study and Advocacy Toolkit for Clergy makes clear the compelling medical, ethical, policy and religious support for this promising field of regenerative medicine.

To request a copy of this toolkit, please email Concerned Clergy for Choice at info@edfundfpa.org or call 518-436-8408.
