SOCIAL JUSTICE

Justice is profoundly significant for the Poor Handmaids of Jesus Christ community. One of our core values, Dignity and Respect for All, names our dedication to alleviating suffering as we actively engage in healing harm from systemic injustices such as racism, poverty, and violence. Through compassionate action and constant learning, we strive to create a world where every person’s inherent worth is acknowledged. For us, social justice is not just a noble aspiration but a fundamental practice that shapes how we build a more just and compassionate society.
