Still wondering why you and/or your institution should attend the largest Catholic social justice conference in the U.S.? A few words from our participants...
------------------------------------------------------------
High School
“Events like these are important for young people because our generation is inheriting the responsibility to help solve these issues, and in order to help we must understand the situation."
Student, De Smet Jesuit High School
"In the midst of some really challenging years, IFTJ is consistently a space of consolation, hope, and resolve. Whatever the secret sauce is, you have it. Thank you for creating this space and empowering and encouraging our Ignatian family."
Educator, Bellarmine Prep
College/Post-Grad
"Attending IFTJ felt amazing. It was really empowering to walk into [a] Senator’s office, and it humanized politics in a way that made me feel like I could become a politician someday.”
Student, Boston College
"I had an incredible experience getting to learn from so many experienced and relatable individuals on such powerful and pressing topics, and it meant so much to get to meet others who are also passionate about faith and justice. Having the opportunity to sing in the choir and pray in front of the White House was so impactful as well!"
Graduate Student, Vanderbilt University
Parish
"It was energizing to see the social justice part of the church alive and well. We don't always have that at our parishes."
