Justice for Women in the Catholic Church

JWCC is a local group that collaborates with the Women's Ordination Conference to work for women's equality in the Catholic Church.

We like to have a mix of home-grown liturgies, national speakers and actions to bring the justice issues for women into the light.

Email CAN to receive updates and meeting times for this group!
