Programs and results

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

79% of Planned Parenthoods are 5 miles from a college. 52% of abortion seeking women are under 25. College and high school is a time when worldviews are challenged and formed. Culture is shaped by the young. If we want to end abortion, we have to start with the youth.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Students for Life exists to transform culture by recruiting, training, and mobilizing the pro-life generation to abolish abortion and promote the non-violent alternatives already available to women in crisis.

At Students for Life, we transform culture by recruiting, training, and mobilizing Millennials and Gen Z to abolish abortion. We launch and support Students for Life groups in colleges, high schools, middle schools, law schools, and med schools throughout the nation to educate other young people about the violence of abortion, create new pro-life advocates, and transform campuses into places that support pregnant and parenting students.

Field Program
The National Field Program is what truly sets SFLA apart from every other pro-life organization. We have full-time field team all over the country and active pro-life groups at more than 1,300 schools. Every day, our team is on campuses starting and growing Students for Life groups who are reaching their peers to change minds and save lives. Alongside our on the ground team we have a Digital Field Program that reaches this generation where they are at, online. Through mind changing digital conversations we are converting young people to be more pro-life and then activating them through a series of follow up messaging. We are engaging in over 400,000 digital conversations each year and growing.

Leadership Development
Students for Life is committed to developing and sending out strong leaders for the pro-life movement, as well as other culture-impacting industries, with our seven year-long Fellowship programs.

Grassroots Mobilizations
When movement shifting events are happening, we are the first ones on the ground, shaping the narrative and achieving tangible policy and cultural results.

National Conference
Every year, Students for Life hosts the world's largest pro-life conference, hosting thousands of students for a full-day of hands on training and networking.

Today's Leaders
With over a decade of training pro-life leaders, Students for Life alumni are in positions of influence around the world and stay connected with SFLA through our Students for Life Alumni Association.

Students for Life serves over 1,300 high school and college pro-life student groups in every state across the nation with a staff of about 80 employees. Annually, Students for Life hosts the nation's largest pro-life conference in Washington, D.C. and mentors thousands through its regional workshops, campus trainings, one-on-one consulting sessions. In addition, SFLA mobilizes its student leaders multiple times a year in Washington, DC and across states, bringing the pro-life generation's voice to the forefront of the abortion debate in America.

When Students for Life transitioned into a full-time organization in 2006, there were 181 pro-life student groups. Today, we are on over 1,300 campuses in all 50 states. We have trained more than 130,000 pro-life student leaders who have changed their campuses and gone onto impact culture in their professional lives.
With our work, our team averaged a 31% min-change rate (an abortion supporter switching from identifying as pro-choice to pro-life) with our online campaigns and 25% mind-change rate from our on-campus outreach. We have changed the way people think about abortion and are raising up the most pro-life generation to lead the charge to abolish abortion in their states and promote the non-violent alternatives already available to women in crisis.
