Collaborations
Collaborative for Catholic Organizing
Our community exists to foster community, nourish spiritual development and build power between organizers, theologians, and people of faith committed to community organizing within the Catholic context. Learn more.
Creation Care Network
The Creation Care Network (CCN) was born from the inspiration sparked by Pope Francis’ 2015 encyclical “Laudato Si’: On Care for Our Common Home”. Network events over the years have gathered the faithful of the Archdiocese of Seattle for inspiration, education, and advocacy around Francis’ call to heed the “. . . cry of earth and cry of the poor.” Our network is made up of parishes and organizations across Western Washington committed to working for environmental justice.

Sacred Salmon Campaign
Our purpose is to gather the faith community to stand alongside Indigenous communities of the Northwest to protect Indigenous sovereignty, amplify tribal-led land return and ecosystem restoration, Native cultural revitalization, and active decolonization of land, water, and air resources, in the hope to restore and honor Indigenous wisdoms and environmental expertise.

Racial Solidarity Network
We are a grassroots network from North Seattle Deanery Catholic parishes who are collaborating to promote awareness, education, and action about systemic racism in our culture. We meet regularly to share resources and to plan together for this purpose. If you or your parish is interested in joining the work, please reach out to: Judy Byron, OP – jbyron@ipjc.org
Solidarity With The Philippines
IPJC is a member of the International Coalition for Human Rights in the Philippines (ICHRP) and we have officially endorsed the Philippine Human Rights Act (PHRA)! We stand with our Filipino siblings as we resist the oppressive and violent Duterte regime and denounce the U.S. government’s complicity in these actions by continuing to fund the administration. Join us to stand up for human rights in the Philippines. Learn more.
