Call for Applications: Men4Choice Fall 2026 Early Fellowship for Young Leaders in Reproductive Freedom
Men4Choice is inviting applications from young male-identifying leaders interested in strengthening their understanding, organizing skills, and engagement in the movement for abortion access and reproductive freedom through its Fall 2026 Early Fellowship.
The 10-week virtual fellowship is designed for young people who want to become more effective pro-choice allies, develop practical organizing skills, build relationships with movement leaders, and contribute meaningfully to the fight for reproductive freedom.
About the Men4Choice Fellowship
Men4Choice is focused on engaging men as active allies in the movement for abortion access and reproductive rights. The organization recognizes that reproductive freedom affects entire communities and seeks to equip men with the knowledge and skills needed to stand alongside women and others impacted by abortion restrictions.
The Fall 2026 Fellowship provides participants with an opportunity to learn from experienced organizers and progressive leaders while developing their own leadership and advocacy capabilities.
Participants will explore important issues surrounding reproductive freedom and abortion access, learn how to become effective allies, and gain practical experience in organizing and movement-building.
The program is particularly suited to young leaders who are motivated to take action rather than remain on the sidelines during challenging political and social circumstances.
What Participants Will Gain
The fellowship offers participants an opportunity to develop both personal and professional skills.
Throughout the program, fellows can expect to:
- Explore key issues affecting reproductive freedom
- Develop practical organizing skills
- Learn how to become effective pro-choice allies
- Strengthen their leadership abilities
- Build relationships with other emerging leaders
- Expand their professional and advocacy networks
- Learn from experienced movement organizers
- Gain knowledge that can strengthen their organizing credentials and resumes
- Become part of a wider community of pro-choice allies
The fellowship is not simply an educational program. It is designed to encourage participants to translate what they learn into meaningful engagement and action.
Fully Virtual Programme
The Fall 2026 Fellowship is delivered entirely online, making it accessible to participants who may not be able to attend an in-person program.
The fellowship runs for 10 weeks, with participants meeting twice each week.
Regular sessions are scheduled for:
- Mondays: 6:00–7:30 p.m. ET
- Thursdays: 6:00–7:00 p.m. ET
Men4Choice indicates that it will try to accommodate participants whose schedules make one of these regular meeting times difficult.
This structure allows fellows to participate in a consistent learning and organizing community while balancing other professional, academic, or personal commitments.
Who Can Apply?
The preliminary application questions indicate that the fellowship is intended for men between the ages of 18 and 35 who support reproductive freedom and identify as pro-choice.
Applicants should also be interested in developing or strengthening their organizing skills and deepening their role as allies to women and people affected by abortion restrictions.
The application specifically asks candidates whether they:
- Identify as a man between 18 and 35
- Believe reproductive freedom should be protected or identify as pro-choice
- Want to develop or sharpen their organizing skills
- Want to become or deepen their role as an ally to people affected by abortion bans
Candidates who answer no to any of the preliminary questions are given an opportunity to explain their circumstances.
Why This Fellowship Matters
For emerging advocates, gaining practical organizing experience can be just as important as academic knowledge.
Social movements require people who can communicate effectively, build communities, organize campaigns, engage supporters, and develop relationships across different groups. The Men4Choice Fellowship aims to help young leaders develop these capabilities while learning directly from people with experience in reproductive-rights organizing.
The program can therefore be valuable for participants interested in advocacy, nonprofit work, public policy, community organizing, campaigning, communications, and social change.
It also offers fellows the opportunity to connect with peers who share an interest in reproductive freedom and progressive organizing.
Applications Are Now Open
Early applications for the Fall 2026 Men4Choice Fellowship are currently open.
The application deadline is August 28, 2026, and applicants are encouraged to submit their materials as early as possible.
Selected applicants will participate in interviews on a rolling basis, meaning interviews will continue until the fellowship reaches capacity. Applying early could therefore be important for candidates who want to be considered before the program is full.
More information about the fellowship is available through Men4Choice’s Youth & College Fellowship page.
