Prior to assuming this position in 1990, she served three years as an attorney in the United States Catholic Conference (USCC) general counsel’s office. There she wrote amicus briefs which were entered in the Supreme Court as it considered the major abortion and euthanasia cases. Before joining the USCC, she worked for three years as a trial attorney for a Philadelphia law firm. In 1994 Time Magazine named Alvarè one of the top 50 leaders in America under the age of 40.p.

The group is committed to the protection of human life from conception to natural death. Its members sponsor educational events and serve women with distressed pregnancies and their unborn children by volunteering and financially supporting the Women’s Care Center.
