Summary

The Campus Formation Coordinator serves both on the ground and behind the scenes, alongside Regional Coordinators (RCs), to increase the level of pro-life involvement at a grassroots level across multiple states. There are three key duties: 1) start new Students for Life groups, 2) turn inactive groups into higher quality groups, and 3) be willing and ready to serve as a substitute for RC duties if assistance is needed. CFCs will complete outreach on average, 3 days a week, working the remaining days remotely.

It is important that all members of Students for Life of America's (SFLA) Field Team be dedicated and flexible with the national mission in mind: to abolish abortion. CFCs must be innovative, tenacious, and execute with excellence, able to go above and beyond when needed.
