Catholic Social Teaching and Northeastern Pennsylvania

Thursday, 28 April, 2016

Northeastern Pennsylvania confronts numerous challenges in the early 21stCentury, including high levels of poverty and inequality, government corruption, environmental degradation, a “greying” population, an increasingly diverse population, and overwhelmed governmental and non-profit agencies.         

As a Catholic and Jesuit University in Northeast Pennsylvania, the University of Scranton is called upon to utilize its institutional resources to promote research and analysis on our immediate community, to educate our students, staff, and faculty and the NEPA community on critical issues confronting the region and to be educated ourselves, and to propose and advocate for solutions to these challenges.

Join us for a day-long teach-in led led by University of Scranton faculty which looks at Northeastern Pennsylvania through the lens of Catholic Social Teaching.
