Whether individuals are pro life or pro choice is a hot button conversation in culture today. Dr. Jeff Pauls has spent years researching why women make the choice for life or abortion and has many insights to offer. He has discovered that most women who have an abortion feel coerced in some way and fear the “psychological death” that would happen to their present and future selves if they decided to keep the child. Dr. Pauls focuses on ways to help women who are facing unexpected pregnancies, such as caring about them as individuals, offering support, making them aware of Pregnancy Resource Centers, and speaking messages of hope that make them feel like it is doable for them to carry their child to term.
Jeff has served the Vitae Foundation in various roles since 2014. In his current role as Research Director, Jeff helped lead Vitae’s most recent research project on women’s health (August, 2015), which is currently informing the development of Vitae media and messaging and being disseminated widely across the country. Jeff has spent most of his career in education and has taught and coached students from 5th grade through post-graduate. Jeff earned his B.A. in History from Truman State University in 1998, M.A. in Educational Administration from Lindenwood University in 2005, and Ph.D. in Education in 2014 from the University of Missouri-St. Louis.
