Welcome to this issue of Faith Meets Justice! This week, the members of the Ignatian Family will gather in New York City at the annual Ignite: A Celebration of Justice, where we will present awards to individuals and organizations who model the way in their work for justice. Learn more about this year's honorees and join this live stream here!
We also invite you to explore some of the ways justice work is happening in our network—including the first UndocuWeek at Boston College ([link removed]) , a panel on civic engagement ([link removed]) at Georgetown’s Initiative on Catholic Social Thought in Public Life, intergenerational advocacy ([link removed]) in Seattle, and the work of ISN's Catholic Ethical Purchasing Alliance to build relationships with ethical coffee growers in Mexico ([link removed]) .
