Arrupe Leaders Summit

Forming + Connecting Ignatian-Inspired High School Leaders
The ISN Arrupe Leaders Summit invites emerging student leaders and faculty/parish chaperones from high schools and parishes nationwide to deepen their understanding of “a faith that does justice,” share ideas and resources for social justice programming, and become empowered to effect positive social change in their local and global communities.
Summit facilitators weave together Arrupe’s example with the leadership best practices, and help students make connections to their own lives through small group conversation, activities and personal reflection time. Further, students and faculty are given ample opportunities to share social justice programming ideas and make connections with fellow social justice leaders from around the country.
Rachel Ford, Christian Service Director at Seattle Preparatory shared:
The Summit has been a transformational experience for me, my students and our campus over the last four years. Every group that I am able to bring to the Summit comes back to our campus on fire with a passion to change our campus community and the world for the better.

One of the most impactful and unexpected (for me!) results of bringing students to the Summit are the lasting interpersonal connections that students make. Every week I have Summit groups members in my office giving me updates on their friends at other Jesuit High Schools that they met through the program—showing me Snap Stories, asking if we can start the same kind of club on our campus that they did, wondering if we can take a “field trip” down to Tacoma to help their friends their start a sweatshop-free campaign on their campus. They learn valuable leadership and advocacy skills and forge bonds that last.
