Acadiana Right to Life

Acadiana Right to Life Acadiana Right to Life (ARTL) works through education, legislation, activism, and service to restore the right to life in Acadiana by opposing abortion.

As a local pro-life resource, we strive to educate all people in the truth about abortion. We encourage the work of pregnancy care centers that help pregnant mothers in need. ARTL promotes pro-life legislation at the local, state, and federal level and informs Acadiana residents on how their representatives stand for life. ARTL is a nonsectarian organization not affiliated with or restricted to a

particular religious group. We believe we can work with anyone to defend and protect human life. ARTL is also a non-partisan organization, not affiliated with any political parties. We must work until every life is welcomed with love and protected by law.

🌟 Life in Action is here! 🌟

Calling all students looking to earn service hours and make a real impact. We’ve moved the date to better accommodate those last-minute schedules, so join us Wednesday, April 30th, from 3:30–5 PM as we serve local moms at our Acadiana Pregnancy Center, 913 S College Rd, Lafayette. This is your chance to step into action and be a light for others in our community.

Parents, if your student still needs service hours, this is the perfect opportunity and yes, we know it may be coming down to the wire… but this is one that truly makes a difference.

Students will not only be helping moms in need, but they’ll also learn, connect, and wrap up with a fun, educational game that shows the real impact of their time and effort. Life in Action is more than service, it’s an experience they won’t forget.

Come serve, grow, and leave inspired. We can’t wait to see you there!

🎥 Why Are You Pro-Life? — Local Voices Series

Kicking off this series by highlighting leaders in our community who are making a real impact!

Featuring Kate Migues of Placed Adoption, along with adoption education from Option Hope.

She shares about adoption as a loving option; one that isn’t always easy, but is truly life-giving for everyone involved.

Because it’s not enough to carry the label of being pro life, we have to understand WHY. And that starts with supporting women through real, informed, and compassionate choices. 💛

03/20/2026

We’ve been out in the community a LOT lately… and honestly, it’s been such a gift. 🫶

From classrooms to churches to small groups and big events, we’re getting to have real conversations about life, dignity, and how each of us can make a difference right where we are. And the best part? No two talks are ever the same.

Whether it’s breaking down the basics, diving into fetal development, sharing real stories, or equipping students to actually live this out! These presentations are built to meet people where they’re at.

If you’ve ever thought, “This would be so good for my school / church / group…” — this is your sign 👀

We made it super easy to bring a speaker to YOU.

February’s Acadiana Pro-Life Luncheon was one we won’t forget ❤️

We were honored to hear from Mike and Tara Wicker as they shared about the impact of abortion on the Black community; challenging, eye-opening, and deeply important. ✊🏽

As Martin Luther King Jr. wrote in his Letter from Birmingham Jail, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” That truth still calls us to pay attention, to learn, and to respond.

We also took time to celebrate what’s happening right here in Acadiana 🎉 From recent wins to the growing momentum in our schools, churches, and pregnancy centers, it’s clear: our community is stepping up and leading the way in Louisiana.

If you’ve been wondering how to get more connected or stay informed, this is your invitation 🤝 Our luncheons are a place to hear real stories, learn about upcoming legislation and projects, and stand alongside local leaders who are making a difference. Because we truly are stronger when we’re informed.

We’re already looking ahead to our next luncheon in May 🌷 we’d love to have you there!

What a blessed day on the road for Spring into Life! 🌷

After an incredible morning, we continued our stops at Westminster Christian Academy and John Paul the Great Academy, where students had the opportunity to hear the powerful story behind I Lived on Parker Avenue from David Scotton himself.

Thanks to the Bienvenu Smith Youth Education Fund, each school’s pro-life club was also awarded $500 to continue the amazing work their students are doing to promote a culture of life on their campuses. Watching young leaders step up and advocate for life is always inspiring.

Truly one for the books. We are so grateful for the warm welcomes and thoughtful conversations that took place throughout the day. 💙

Good news! David Scotton will be back with us this fall in November! If you’d like him to stop at your school with no speaking fee, give us a call. We’d love to bring this powerful story to your students. 📞
