Promoting religious freedom for all people through advocacy, student formation, and scholarship.

Informed by the Catholic tradition of the University of Notre Dame, our mission is to promote human flourishing by serving as a source of advocacy, counsel, scholarship, training, fellowship, and hope in defense of the fundamental right to religious freedom for all people.

“Without freedom of conscience — to believe, and then to live our lives as our beliefs require us — nothing else matters.”

– Dean G. Marcus Cole
