Human Life International (HLI) is a Roman Catholic, U.S.-based anti-abortion organization. It has been based in Front Royal, Virginia since 1996. as a continuation of the Human Life Center founded by Marx at Saint John's University, Minnesota in 1972. Its mission is to train and organize anti-abortion movement leaders: priests, crisis pregnancy centers, civic leaders, radio and television programmers, and family counselors. HLI bases its activism on Catholic anti-abortion beliefs, which propose that life begins at conception. The group also advocates against contraceptives. It has supported the criminalization of homosexuality in Uganda.

In the mid-1990s, Jennifer Gonnerman described HLI's anti-abortion campaign as more influential than that of the Operation Save America. In 1997, Human Life International supported the founding of the Center for Family and Human Rights. The group is affiliated with the Population Research Institute.
