* '''[[Lloyd Schofield]]''' was the proponent for the ''San Francisco Male Genital Mutilation Initiative'', which gathered nearly double the amount of valid signatures required to be placed on the 2011 ballot in the City and County of San Francisco. The initiative's signature-gathering process and placement on the ballot generated an enormous amount of international publicity and facilitated a worldwide discussion that had not been previously possible. Lloyd is currently the President of the [[Bay Area Intactivists]], a grassroots 501(c)(3) charitable organization, which works to protect and defend the [[genital autonomy]] of all individuals − male, female and intersex − by sponsoring and participating in events that expand visibility and work together with other [[human rights]] organizations. Lloyd presented a tribute to Jonathon Conte at the Keele Symposium in September 2016. San Francisco, {{USSC|CA}}, USA.
* '''[[Steve Scott]]''', as the Education Outreach Coordinator for NOCIRC, produced multi-media presentations for healthcare providers and public education forums. He organized the world premiere of ''The Nurses of St Vincent Say No to Circumcision''. Steve has presented at national and international conferences on the topic of circumcision and is a regular guest speaker for the Department of Human Sexuality at the {{UNI|University of Utah|UofU}} and the Department of Ethics at {{UNI|Utah Valley University|UVU}}. He directed the production of the video, The Prepuce, and authored, "Anatomy and Physiology of the Human Prepuce," in ''Male and Female Circumcision: Medical, Legal, and Ethical Considerations in Pediatric Practice''(Kluwer Academic/Plenum Press 1999), the proceedings of the [[Fifth International Symposium]] on Sexual Mutilations. Salt Lake City, {{USSC|UT}}, USA.
* '''[[J. Steven Svoboda]]''' holds a Master’s Degree in Physics from the {{UNI|University of California at Berkeley|UCBE}} and graduated with honors from Harvard Law School. He is Executive Director of Attorneys for the Rights of the Child, which he founded in 1997, and he has presented to the United Nations on male circumcision. In 2013, he debated Michael Brady of the American Academy of Pediatrics regarding the legality and ethics of male circumcision, unofficially winning the debate. His articles regarding children’s right to bodily autonomy have appeared in the ''Journal of Medical Ethics'', ''Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine'', ''Journal of Law, Medicine & Ethics'', ''American Medical Association Journal of Ethics'', and ''American Journal of Bioethics''. Berkeley, {{USSC|CA}}, USA.
* '''Ashley Trueman''', BS, MS, MCert Philosophy, Director of Education with [[Your Whole Baby]], developed “The Foreskin and Circumcision: Facts you need to know to make an informed decision”, a two-hour class curriculum for expectant parents, which she presented at the [[Thirteenth International Symposium]] on Genital Autonomy and Children's Rights. To date, her presentation to more than 300 couples has a 100% success rate for saving boys from circumcision. Circumcision first got on Ashley’s radar when a baby died shortly after his circumcision at a pediatric office where she worked as an undergraduate student. Many years later, her office shared a wall with the “circumcision room” of a pediatrician/mohel and that’s what drove her to activism and eventually back to school to study bioethics. Ashley began her bioethics training at {{UNI|Georgetown University|GU}} before moving to England to study philosophy with a focus in bioethics at {{UNI|Oxford University|Oxon}}. She also holds degrees from {{UNI|Arizona State University|ASU}} and {{UNI|Tulane University|TUNO}}. New Haven, {{USSC|CT}}, USA.
