Pope Leo XIV!
In 1972, 47 Catholic Sisters gathered in Washington, D.C. and the spark that would become NETWORK was ignited. NETWORK is an inclusive, national, Catholic advocacy organization open to all who share our values, working to achieve equity and justice for everyone. NETWORK’s commitment to Gospel values and Catholic Social Justice principles is expressed on two websites. The first, NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice, is a 501(c)(4) non-profit whose work focuses on lobbying and grassroots advocacy for specific legislation and policies to advance the common good. The second, NETWORK Advocates for Catholic Social Justice, at www.networkadvocates.org, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit devoted to advocacy and voter education, including training, webinars, and other resources, on the policies that are central to our mission. For important educational resources, please go to www.networkadvocates.org.
