“In Defense of Parental Notice of Abortion” (Illinois Family Spotlight #243)

Parents for the Protection of Girls–a grassroots movement to uphold and defend parental notice–recently hosted an online forum in defense of Illinois’s parental notice of abortion act. This spotlight features that especially timely news session with:

Mary Hallan FioRito, a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center. She served as a moderator for this forum.

John Jones, a worship pastor at the Christian Life Center in Blue Island, IL. He led off the forum in defense of the parental notification of abortion act.

Laura Letterer, a world recognized expert on human trafficking who serves on the board of directors of Global Centurion, an NGO which fights sex slavery around the world. She speaks second in defense of the parental notification of abortion act with respect to sex trafficking.

Dr. Brooke Bello, a human trafficking survivor, she holds a doctorate in pastoral counseling, and is the founder and CEO of More Too Life. She speaks third in defense of the parental notification of abortion act by sharing her story.

Dr. Jackie Pifer, an expert in the brain development of teenagers who holds a doctoral degree in psychology. She has nearly thirty years of clinical experience, including six years as a neuro-psychologist. She speaks fourth in defense of the parental notification of abortion act by talking about the brain development of adolescents.

This group of individuals make a good case to keep the Illinois parental notice of abortion law intact. There is also a question and answer session at the end.
