Office of Peace and Justice (Phoenix, AZ)

Service Learning Programs (Phoenix, AZ)
These Programs are an important part of the Brophy curriculum and the student experience. Their purpose is to teach students about social justice through an experience of service to people who know what it is to be pushed to the sides of society (marginalization).his mission reaches beyond a college-prep education, which is available in many other private and public secondary schools. What distinguishes a Jesuit education is the emphasis on a call to view the world from the perspective of marginalized people; a perspective which develops what Father Pedro Arrupe, S.J., the former General of the Society of Jesus, called "men and women for others."
