Feminists for Life of America 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.
Feminists for Life is a renaissance of the original American feminism. Like Susan B. Anthony and other early American suffragists, today’s pro-life feminists envision a better world in which no woman would be driven by desperation to abortion:
- A world in which pregnancy, motherhood, and birth motherhood are accepted and supported.
- Campuses and workplaces that support mothers in practical ways and do not force them to choose between their education or career plans and their children.
- A society that supports the role of mothers, values the role of fathers, and helps parents provide both financial and emotional support for their children.
- A culture in which parents are respected, whether they decide to stay at home or return to work.
Established in 1972, Feminists for Life of America is a nonsectarian, nonpartisan, grassroots organization that seeks real solutions to the challenges women face. Our efforts are shaped by the core feminist values of justice, nondiscrimination, and nonviolence. Feminists for Life of America continues the tradition of early American feminists such as Susan B. Anthony, who opposed abortion.
