Lila Rose is a student activist at UCLA who has dedicated herself to building a culture of life and ending abortion. At age fifteen, Lila founded Live Action, which is now a growing nonprofit with several chapters in California. Live Action is a student-led organization and uses "new media" to educate and mobilize both local and national audiences to demand accountability from the abortion industry and human rights for the pre-born.
In Fall 2006, Lila began her undergraduate studies at UCLA and soon founded the pro-life student magazine The Advocate, administered through the new UCLA student chapter of Live Action. The Advocate ran its inaugural issue in January 2007, reporting on Lila’s first undercover investigation—an expose of pro-abortion counseling at UCLA’s Arthur Ashe Health Center and institutional support for abortion for pregnant students. The Advocate has since gone national and is distributed at over two dozen different high school and college campuses across the country.
Lila has led numerous undercover stings through Live Action, exposing corruption and illegal activity within Planned Parenthood, the Nation's number one Abortion provider. “The Mona Lisa Project,” vividly illustrates how Planned Parenthood’s ‘abortion-first mentality’ leads it to disregard state laws meant to protect young girls, instead sending them back into the arms of their sexual abusers. It has prompted officials in several states to take action against Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood affiliates are the subject of ongoing investigations in Indiana and Alabama, and the Tennessee legislature recently voted to end up to $1.1 million in taxpayer subsidies to the abortion provider. Similarly, the Alabama Department of Health put the Birmingham clinic under severe investigation as a result of the undercover video taped there. The clinic has been put on a one-year probation as the investigation continues to uncover illegal and wrongful proceedings. Also released is a collection of phone calls made too the Planned Parenthood Development offices under the name of “The Racism Project,” which captured Planned Parenthood employees behaving hospitably to and receiving donations from an actor posing as an outspoken racist. Lila is currently releasing the "The Rosa Acuna Project" which reveals Planned Parenthood counselors and abortionists manipulating patients and giving medical misinformation.
In 2008, Lila was awarded an inaugural Life Prize by the Gerard Health Foundation. Lila is a frequent guest on radio and television programs, including The O'Reilly Factor, Hannity's America, The Glenn Beck Show, EWTN, and The Laura Ingraham Show. Numerous newspapers and blogs have also covered her work, including feature pieces by Reuters, the LA Times, the Wall Street Journal, Salon Magazine Online, Washington Times, and National Review. The Associated Press and UPI frequently publish stories on Live Action's work, and Lila speaks at national and international pro-life events. Lila is a history major at UCLA. When not traveling or in school, Lila enjoys writing, fitness, and spending time with her family and friends.
