This concentration is committed to equity, inclusivity, and anti-racist leadership formation useful within organizations, such as congregations, local hospitals, not-for-profits, small businesses, and large corporations. Organizations, communities, and congregations daring to bend the arc toward justice require leaders who are passionate for and trained in the work of organizational transformation for racial, gender, and cultural equity.

“Justice-Informed DEI are seeds of faith and practice creating the infrastructure for lasting accountability. Justice demands a shifting towards equity and an imagination that includes the gifts found in and through human engagement.”

Eden is recognized for alumni who are change agents. Our assessment demonstrates that Eden graduates lead in multi-faceted ways working alongside justice seekers in their communities. Through deepening relationships and training leaders from communities like your own, both faith and practice can be activated to create accountable avenues towards justice. The inclusion of CPE (Clinical Pastoral Education) into this program is an invitation to deepen one’s own self-awareness and hear more clearly the violent traditions and lean in and support whole communities through justice and trauma informed care.
