Justice ADVOCATE & Community LEADER

At Notre Dame, we are developing women leaders who will create a more just world. Our Education for Justice & Leadership initiative defines the distinctive curriculum that forms students for compassionate and socially-just leadership. This commitment to educate towards goals of personal engagement and responsibility, solidarity, stewardship and advocacy requires purposeful integration of academic study, direct experience, thoughtful service and reflection.

Through our program, students develop a strong sense of self as well as their own voice and perspective on social issues. As people of service and impact, they take their place in the community, standing with, and speaking up for, vulnerable populations. They graduate with strong voices and the knowledge and tools to bring intelligent compassion to our local, national and global communities.
