Medical Students for Life

Mission:

Medical Students for Life is an organization dedicated to upholding the dignity and value of every human life. Through greater education, research, and service activities, this organization aims at the: protection of women and their unborn children, genuine enhancement of women's health, and the promotion of an appreciation for all human life.

Services Provided:

We are committed to educating future physicians in the development of a strong and ethically sound philosophy concerning abortion in order to strengthen the educational process of parents and their approach to this challenging decision.

We empower medical students to become physician advocates for life by educating them about the many options available to women in a crisis pregnancy, and put them in contact with local pro-life physicians who integrate their beliefs into their practice of medicine.

We are also committed to action in the local community, both to further an understanding of pro-life issues and to foster an environment that supports women before, during, and after pregnancy.

Tentative Schedule for 2012-13:

Some topics that we plan to address next year include: post-abortion syndrome, Pro-life vs. Pro-choice discussion panel, link between abortion and breast cancer, challenges of being a pro-life doctor.

We are currently are collaborating with the National Students for Life Organization and will be bring in one of their speaker for an  informative lunch time presentation.  Also we will have opportunities for volunteering at the Pregnancy Resource Center.

Future Fundraising Plans: Selling Blades during orientation, selling tiny baby feet lapel pins during organizational fair, bake good sales.

Activities: Walk for Life (PRC), Club T-shirt design, volunteering at the Pregnancy Resource Center, friendly athletic competitions with other OU-HCOM organizations.
