7 reasons why you should go to the National Pro-Life Summit
(Students for Life of America) We are only SEVEN weeks (exactly) away from the biggest pro-life training conference in the world. Formerly known as the Students for Life of America National Conference, the National Pro-Life Summit is BIGGER in every way.
Taking place on Saturday, January 25th (the day after the March for Life) this Summit is poised to train 3,000 pro-life activists of all ages to be well-rounded builders of a culture of LIFE. Since we’re seven weeks out, check out these seven reasons why you should get your March for Life group to attend the Summit!
Number One: The Location is Convenient
This year, we are blessed to bring this event right to downtown Washington, D.C. For March for Life pilgrims… it could not be closer! The entire Summit will take place at the Mariott Marquis (901 Massachusetts Ave NW).
We even have a couple rooms left of a special discounted room block… click here to snag one! They’re almost gone though so get them while you can. These rooms provide the ultimate experience – lodging in the same building as the event!
Number Two: The All-Star Speaker Lineup
There are four pro-life powerhouse organizations hosting this Summit (Students for Life of America, Live Action, Alliance Defending Freedom, and Heritage Foundation). And with this all-star team came even more all-star pro-life speakers than ever before.
Speakers range across the whole pro-life spectrum, from survivors of failed abortions and former NFL players to life-championing politicians and famous faith leaders. The pro-life movement is incredibly diverse, and there will be an expert on every topic our movement faces.

Number Three: We Can Drive You to D.C.
For the first time ever, Students for Life is sponsoring bus trips to the March for Life and National Pro-Life Summit. A few of the trips are already fully booked, but the last few still have seats open!
The Ohio and Midwest (red and royal blue below) Trips are full, but there are still seats on the rest of the routes (the orange Northeast trip, the teal Southeast trip, the purple Appalachian trip, and the lime green Pennsylvania trip).
Click here to learn more and see who to contact for the trip in your region. Students must be 18 or older.
Dear Reader,
Every day in America, more than 2,800 preborn babies lose their lives to abortion.
That number should break our hearts and move us to action.
Ending this tragedy requires daily commitment from people like you who refuse to stay silent.
Millions read Live Action News each month — imagine the impact if each of us took a stand for life 365 days a year.
Right now, we’re urgently seeking 500 new Life Defenders (monthly donors) to join us before the end of October. And thanks to a generous $250,000 matching grant, your first monthly gift will be DOUBLED to help save lives and build a culture that protects the preborn.
Will you become one of the 500 today? Click here now to become a Live Action Life Defender and have your first gift doubled.
Together, we can end abortion and create a future where every child is cherished and every mother is supported.

Number Four: The Price is Right
We know that cost is one of the biggest obstacles for groups attending the March for Life. That’s why we’ve done everything in our power to keep the cost as low as possible for both students and adults. Student tickets are just $55 and adult tickets are $80 – all for an entire day of pro-life training (plus a catered lunch). But remember, after January 9th, those ticket costs will increase by another $5.
Intimidated by planning the trip? Just dive in! Check out our FAQ Page and our Student Planning Guide to help you piece together a super memorable pilgrimage to the biggest pro-life gathering in the world. And if you’re still not sure after checking out those resources, know that any member of the Students for Life team would be more than happy to help you (and/or your group) put your trip together.
Number Six: You’ll Already Be In Town!
As a result of the March for Life committee re-positioning the March to always be on a Friday… that means the National Pro-Life Summit will always be on a Saturday! So every logistical factor is in your group’s favor: both events are in downtown D.C., there are plenty of places to stay, and you won’t have to miss any extra school.
We hear these stories all the time – students attend our National Conference and are so ignited and moved by it that they set out on a new path to build a culture of life. There are members on our own Students for Life team who have had this experience, and other students who have felt subsequently called to religious life or full-time work in the pro-life movement. In essence… it’s impossible to surround yourself with the Pro-Life Generation in this setting and not feel on FIRE for life, fully equipped to go out and defend the preborn.
