The Oblate Justice
and Peace/Integrity of Creation Office, located in Washington DC serves
as a resource for Oblates in the U.S. and throughout the world who seek
to become more involved in advocacy efforts both in the public and
private sector.
Staff from the Office represent the Oblates in advocacy efforts in
DC and around the world.
Some of the issues
the office works on:
Socially
responsible investing/ Corporate social responsibility
Promoting the Integrity of Creation
Debt relief for poor and middle income countries
Indigenous rights
Human rights in Africa
Human rights at the US/Mexico Border

In an effort to
help Oblates promote practices that help the environment, the JPIC
Office has just updated the brochures that originally flowed from the
“Environmental Resolution” the US Province passed a few years ago. We
will be happy to send you copies of either the brochures or the
resolution if you contact us.
