Texas Right to Life was founded in 1973 by ordinary moms, dads, pastors, students, and teachers in Houston. This small team set out just to save babies in their city, but God had bigger plans.
Our mission grew, reaching more hearts, changing laws, and rescuing nearly 1,000,000 children. Because of our impact, Texas Right to Life is now a leader in the Pro-Life movement, not just in our state but around the world.
The fight to end abortion is unique. Not only do we need to save babies right now, but we also need to change our culture so that people are no longer seen as disposable. That’s why we work in three ways—education, legislation, and advocacy—training Pro-Life students, passing new laws, and winning legal battles to protect preborn babies.
No lasting change can take hold in our land until all people truly believe that Life is sacred and must be protected. Education is the first step on our long journey to restoring the sanctity of innocent human life. The last few decades have proven that many more Texans must join us if we are to triumph, advance our Culture of Life, and build the Kingdom of God.
Texas Right to Life created the Dr. Joseph Graham Fellowship for college students looking to advance the Culture of Life on their college campuses. These students must start or be involved in the Pro-Life group on their campus and complete 50 hours of Pro-Life service work each semester. In return for their vigorous and tireless work, they are awarded $1,000 scholarship for each semester they are involved in the fellowship.
Funding for the North Texas Dr. Joseph Graham Fellows. Each fellow costs about $3,500 each school year they in the fellowship. This includes a $2,000 scholarship, training, and mentorship.
The members, directors, staff, and affiliated local chapters of Texas Right to Life seek to articulate and protect the Right to Life of defenseless human beings, born and unborn, through legal, peaceful, and prayerful means. This commitment is derived from a belief that each human being, from the moment of fertilization until natural death, has an immeasurable dignity and inalienable Right to Life.
