• Women's Justice Coalition

Women's Justice Coalition is a group of organizations working for reform and renewal within the Roman Catholic Church in a variety of ways. Catholics Speak Out, a program of the Quixote Center, coordinates the coalition.

WJC sponsors an annual action project to help move the cause of women's equality forward. Our goal is to build a broad grassroots movement to demonstrate that large numbers of Catholics support equality and justice for women.

We say the time has come:

— To affirm the equal rights of women and men in the church,
— To share decision-making with women and men equally,
— For our liturgical ministries to reflect the equality we proclaim,
— For inclusive language, the language of hospitality, to be the norm for our preaching, our liturgy, and church documents,
— To acknowledge that the Holy Spirit calls women, as well as men, to ordained ministry.
