We are a coalition of faith-based organizations and individuals who work together to educate around justice issues, take collaborative action and do public witness.
We address local, national and international concerns focusing on economic justice, women's issues, human rights, racial equality, peace and the environment.

Founded in 1985, our goals continue to be: to deepen awareness of justice as integral, not optional, to our faith response. to network participating organizations and to collaborate with other concerned groups for stronger public witness and impact on justice and peace issues. to plan and carry out programs of education and action which affect structural injustice.

Our logo:

IJPC was founded by congregations of women religious. The cross represents our faith base.The lines which extend out and beyond the border express our commitment to work on personal, local, national and global issues.

The world symbol holds four focus areas that were our core focus twenty years ago: Peace, Women, Racism and Central America. Over the years we have broadened the Central America interest to include other human rights issues and have added economic justice and environment issues to our ambitions.
