Target demographics: We mobilize individuals and institutions connected with the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) in the United States. This includes high school students and faculty; university students, staff, and faculty; parish members; graduates of Jesuit institutions; and others who feel a connection to the spirituality of St. Ignatius of Loyola and its emphasis on the relationship between faith and justice.

Direct beneficiaries per year: In person programs directly impact 1,500+ people per year. Our online programs and resources impact thousands in the U.S. and beyond the reach of this medium grows daily.

Geographic areas served: We work mainly with U.S. based institutions, though we welcome individuals and institutions from throughout the world to be part of our in-person programs and online dialogue.

Mission:

The Ignatian Solidarity Network promotes leadership and advocacy among students, alumni, and other emerging leaders from Jesuit schools, parishes, and ministries by educating its members on social justice issues; by mobilizing a national network to address those issues; and by encouraging a life-long commitment to the “service of faith and the promotion of justice.”

Results:

The stories of individuals inspired by their participation in Ignatian Solidarity Network programs are endless. Most notable recently is the 2011 Ignatian Family Teach-In for Justice which brought together nearly 1,200 individuals from Jesuit and partner institutions across the United States for learning, reflection, networking, prayer, and advocacy. 800+ participants took part in a legislative advocacy day on Capitol Hill, completing 130 meetings in 60 different legislators office and the White House.

I have brought students to the Arrupe Leaders Summit two years in a row, and our high school also brings students to the Ignatian Family Teach-In each year.
