Ca3N2 has a Lewis structure that starts with a Calcium atom in the center. From this Ca atom, there are two single bonds, each connected to a Nitrogen atom. Each nitrogen atom then has a double bond with a single Calcium atom.

Cl=Ca=Cl
' ' ' '
two dots above and below the Cl atom, double bonds between Ca and both of the Cl's, octet rule satisfied while correct number of valence electrons is applied
* it is actually with 2 single bonds. By giving the 2 electrons away the octet of ca is satisfied. and 3 pairs of electrons around each cl. However, since this is a ionc molecule it is redundant to draw a structural formula for it, since that would refer that there is sharing of electrons going on, which there isn't. Hope it helps :)
