Campus Program Background
The Feminist Majority
Foundation (FMF) started the Campus Program to inform young
feminists about the very real threats to abortion
access, women’s rights, affirmative action, and lesbian,
gay, bisexual, and transgender rights posed by right-wing extremists.
FMF works with students on college campuses to effect change
at the grassroots, national, and global levels. The Campus Program
is built upon FMF’s philosophy that the most effective
activism is informed activism, or study to action. Our program
provides
progressive students with opportunities to learn about timely
feminist issues, develop their leadership and organizing skills,
and connect
with the larger pro-choice and feminist movements. Campus Program

Feminist Majority
Leadership Alliances
FMF employs a full-time staff of Campus Organizers to help
students build and sustain pro-choice feminist activist groups
called
Feminist Majority Leadership Alliances (FMLAs). Campus Organizers
also work with existing college feminist groups who wish
to receive the support of a national organization through affiliation.
The
Leadership Alliances and Affiliates constitute a nationwide
network of pro-choice feminist student-run activist organizations.
FMF
is currently working with several hundred college campuses
nationwide and the network is growing every day!
