Pro-Life Healthcare and Law School Fellowship
Earn $1,000 Each Semester
We know that you want to be an effective Pro-Life advocate in law school or health science school. In order to do that, you need to lead Pro-Life events at your school. Maybe you don’t know how, which can cause you to feel disorganized, stressed, or alone. Maybe you’re already leading a Pro-Life group, but you want more effective ways to spread the message to your peers. We believe that you deserve to become an expert Pro-Life leader. We understand how complicated it can be for students to share their Pro-Life beliefs, which is why we have trained over 300 undergraduate Fellows and almost 100 graduate Fellows in Texas since 2008 to successfully lead Pro-Life groups and spread the Pro-Life message to their peers. Apply now for the Fellowship, and stand up for life.
Scholarships are available for law students, and professional health science students (such as medical, nursing, occupational, and more) who are willing to establish a Pro-Life organization, attend our mandatory training, and host Pro-Life speakers and events at their Texas school. Individual recipients earn $1000 per semester.
