An Advocacy Immersion Experience

A group of seniors and two teachers from Assumption High School in Louisville, KY, visited Washington, D.C. for an advocacy immersion experience over their spring break, Feb. 23-28. They learned about the impacts of climate change and extractive industries on the environment and vulnerable communities, attended a forum on environmental justice and lobbied their legislators in support of the Clean Economy Act.

Laudato Si Year

The urgent challenge to protect our common home includes a concern to bring the whole human family together to seek a sustainable and integral development…Humanity still has the ability to work together in building our common home. Young people demand change. They wonder how anyone can claim to be building a better future without thinking of the environmental crisis and the sufferings of the excluded. (Laudato Si’ 13)
