  Are you a student or do you teach/work with a student with a passion for justice work?

  The signup for the is now open. Each year, University Ministry takes eight students on this weekend conference to Washington, D.C., to learn, network and advocate for justice issues alongside other Jesuit schools.

  IFTJ is an annual gathering for members of the Ignatian family (Jesuit high schools, colleges and universities) to come together in the context of social justice and solidarity to learn, reflect, pray, network and advocate together. The group gathers each year in the spirit of the Jesuit martyrs of El Salvador, using their lives and ministry as inspiration for discovering the injustices of today and how to strive for a better world. The Teach-In is a place where people are empowered, re-energized, inspired and challenged by hearing nationally renowned speakers and student leaders on topics such as justice for immigrants, ecological justice, racism, sustainability, LGBTQ+ inclusion, solidarity and how to advocate for U.S. policy change.

  On the last day of the Teach-In, student delegations meet with their senators and representatives to advocate for policy change on issues of immigration or climate change.

  Teach-In Dates: Saturday, Nov. 14 – Monday, Nov. 16

  Cost to attend: $150 (All inclusive–includes transportation, hotel, all meals and conference registration) University Ministry covers the rest of the weekend’s expenses to keep the cost low for students. Some need-based scholarships are available if this cost is an obstacle to attend.
