Mission

The genesis for Justice Month came about when the Office of Peace and Justice’s (OPJ) stepped up to the challenges of the Archdiocesan Strategic Pastoral Plan, seriously engaging the Year of Teen and Young Adult.  With this impetus, OPJ began asking peace and justice leaders in each vicariate this fundamental question: How can justice education spark the imaginations of Archdiocesan teens and young adults? The mission of Justice Month is, therefore, to empower local parish leaders to develop peace and justice strategies which include youth and young adults.
