Join the IHE for a discussion with IHE Scholar W. Bradford Wilcox, author of Get Married: Why Americans Must Defy the Elites, Forge Strong Families, and Save Civilization. This event is cosponsored by Catholic University Campus Ministry, The Catholic Project, and the Center for Law and the Human Person.

Marriage and fertility rates are cratering, hitting lows never seen before in America’s history. This means that a record share of today’s young adults will never marry and never have children, but, paradoxically, marriage and family life matter more than ever in the 21st century. Men, women, and children in married families are much more likely to thrive socially, emotionally, and financially than their peers who do not enjoy the safety and stability of a married family. Dr. Wilcox of the National Marriage Project at the University of Virginia will reveal what is happening to marriage and family life, why these two institutions are losing ground, and what we can do to revive their fortunes in 21st-century America.

This event is free and open to the public. A reception with refreshments will follow.
