Workshop: From Spirit to Strategy - Strengthening and Sustaining Social Justice Teams in Your Parish or Organization
This workshop empowers community leaders to build a vibrant, sustainable social justice team rooted in faith, relationship, and action. Participants will explore practical tools from the world of community organizing—relationship-building, leadership development, and strategic planning—through a Catholic and Christian lens.
Together, we will reflect on how to create Social Justice Teams that are not only responsive to the signs of the times, but also rooted in the life of the parish/organization and capable of long-term impact. Through shared learning, storytelling, and hands-on activities, participants will gain confidence and clarity in how to organize their communities around issues of justice, equity, and human dignity—sustained by faith, fueled by hope, and driven by a shared commitment to the Common Good.
