Professor Elizabeth Kirk, co-director of Catholic Law's Center for Law and the Human Person, was recently featured in an OSV News story regarding a new awareness campaign. Her article, titled "Informing Choice: The Role of Adoption in Women’s Pregnancy Decision-Making," co-authored with Ryan Hanlon and published in the Notre Dame Journal of Law, Ethics & Public Policy, provided context for a discussion about a recent ad produced by the group "Adoption is an Option." This ad campaign focuses on placing a spotlight on adoption as a positive alternative for expectant mothers.

The OSV News piece used Kirk’s findings to underscore the necessity of the campaign. Her work emphasizes that women facing unexpected pregnancies frequently overlook adoption as a possibility. By highlighting this research, the article reinforces the campaign's goal to ensure women have a complete understanding of the choices available to them during difficult decision-making moments.
