This daylong conference will bring together national experts to discuss new research concerning the diagnosis of Trisomy 13 and 18, concerns regarding the absence of accurate prognostic information available to parents when a prenatal diagnosis is provided, the impact of prenatal diagnosis on perinatal palliative care, and guidance regarding Catholic ethics. The program will also include a review of effective Trisomy 21 advocacy over the last fifty years which has changed the medical landscape for those living with this syndrome, and best practices in trauma informed care in supporting parents who receive a prenatal diagnosis. The day will conclude with a Q&A session with the presenters. Registration will open in December. Co-sponsored by the diocesan ministry Miriam’s Blessing, de Nicola Center for Ethics and Culture and the Notre Dame Office of Life and Human Dignity, McGrath Institute for Church Life, University of Notre Dame.
