Cultivate intellectual depth and apply Ignatian discernment to decision-making, charisms distinctive to our way of proceeding.

Develop personal relationships with the poor to deepen our vocations and to better respond, individually as well as institutionally, to their needs.

Leverage our institutions and networks of relationships in favor of the poor and the vulnerable.

Serve as bridges between peoples who are estranged due to cultural, political, or socioeconomic differences.

Care for the earth, our common home, with institutions and Jesuit communities using their resources to advance environmental justice.
