During the 2027-2028 school year,
fellows receive…
- A FREE trip for the kickoff of the program: All selected fellows are invited to Washington, D.C for the National Leaders Collective Kickoff Weekend.
- Internship credit: We may offer unpaid internship credit for fellows who complete the appropriate requirements, which can be added to a resume upon completion of the program. However, our fellowships may not meet the qualifications of every university for internship credit. If a fellow wants to receive school internship credit for completing their fellowship, they will need to confirm eligibility with their university.
- Resources and training in leadership: All selected fellows commit to five hours per month of leadership development through their fellowship. This is accomplished through reviewing various books and publications, participating in bi-monthly or monthly webcasts for discussion, and hearing lectures from guest speakers during the webcasts.
- Project development experience: All selected fellows commit to completing a project during the year that applies the skills they learn to their campus pro-life groups. The fellows must design their projects to address their unique campus and community needs and build their pro-life resume. Fellows receive one-on-one mentorship from their fellowship leader to complete their project.
- Career insight and mentorship: All selected fellows commit to virtual mentorship from a career mentor (a full-time professional working in the pro-life movement), who will give advice on full-time work in the pro-life movement and help them complete their projects if they line up with the mentor’s area of expertise.
- Exclusive opportunities to further the pro-life mission: All selected leaders regularly assist SFLA by volunteering in strategic activism to further the mission of abolishing abortion.
