Feminists for Life recognizes that abortion is a reflection that our society has failed to meet the needs of women. We are dedicated to systematically eliminating the root causes that drive women to abortion—primarily lack of practical resources and support—through holistic, woman-centered solutions. Women deserve better than abortion. And so we celebrate the re-introduction of the Elizabeth Cady Stanton Pregnant and Parenting Student Services Act.
