national leaders collective
Welcome to the National Leaders Collective Class of 2027!
This community of leaders includes students accepted into a Students for Life of America or Students for Life Action yearlong leadership fellowship, designed to help students find their niche in the pro-life movement.
These fellowships equip you to make the greatest impact on your campus — based on your school’s unique needs — and provide yearlong support, networking opportunities, and training to strengthen your leadership skills.
Please complete your registration for your fellowship as soon as possible.
Your Fellowship Year Begins at the National Leaders Collective Kickoff Weekend
Thursday, June 18 – Monday, June 22, 2026
Leaders will collaborate, network, and learn from pro-life experts in various fields about how to abolish abortion in their communities and across the nation. Attendees will also take part in hands-on activism events and build relationships with other leaders.
By Invitation Only: This kickoff event is exclusively for students accepted into a fellowship or invited to represent their group for an annual award. No outside guest attendance is permitted.

of the National Leaders Collective
“The NLC kickoff exceeded my expectations by going above and beyond with its trainings, events, and activism to set me on the right path for my club for the upcoming school year.”
— Darrison Haftarczyk, 2024–2025 William Wilberforce Fellow
“As an already passionate pro-lifer, this experience equipped me with the much-needed apologetics I need to continue defending the right to life back in my community. Furthermore, through the variety of speakers and events, I reconnected with the spark that once inspired me to begin my involvement in the movement. In my own community, I sometimes lose touch with my ‘why,' and the fire slowly starts to extinguish when I am not connected to the movement. I can proudly say that I feel ready to go back into my community head-on and tackle the Pro-Life issues in my community.”
— Reagan Pullium, 2025–2026 Thaddeus Stevens Fellow
“This was such an amazing weekend; I will always remember it. I am so blessed to have been accepted into this Fellowship so that I can grow as a leader in this movement. Thank you, Students for Life staff, for pouring into us and trusting us to be the post-Roe generation.”
— KaeLeigh Ausley, 2022–2023 Christian Leadership Fellow
