Family Solidarity is an Irish conservative advocacy group run by lay Catholics. Founded in 1984 by supporters of the campaign that led to the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution of Ireland, it campaigned against the introduction of divorce.[1][2] Nora Bennis was a member.[3]

Sports commentator Michael O'Hehir was a patron of the organisation at its founding.[2] Justin Barrett was also involved.
