Since 1971, the Center of Concern has offered moral vision and provided effective leadership in the struggle to end hunger, poverty, environmental decline, and injustice in the United States and around the world. Our goal is to provide individuals and organizations with basic tools to address these universal questions: What are the root causes of human suffering in the world today? How can we change systems to increase social justice and offer hope? We provide reliable information and analysis on development issues, practical alternatives to current development policies, practical suggestions for personal action, and faith reflections on this work for justice. The Center of Concern has worked with many graduate and undergraduate interns throughout our 39 years. Their research work, positive attitudes, and resourcefulness have increased the outreach of the Center in many ways. They enjoy contributing to our social and economic justice research work, attending conferences, networking with our colleagues, and participating in the life of the Center.
