  • Annual Report 2011-2012
    Mater Matters FALL 2012 ANNUAL REPORT 2011-2012 OPENING COMMENTS From the Principal During a recent trip to my ancestral home, Ireland, I visited St. Patrick’s Church in Glenbrohane where my great grandparents were married. This simple country church overlooks a sweeping vista of rolling hills, dotted with sheep and cows belonging to the local farmers. My cousin, Mike Tobin, whispered to me during Mass, “That chalice was the one used at your great grandmother’s wedding. The church has only one, and I am sure that was the one used.” I was distracted during Mass thinking about where John Buckley stood as he watched Ellen Tobin walk down the aisle. How did they meet? What walks did they walk? What dreams did they have for the future? Did they envision what their own life would become — immigrating to America, their future home in Philadelphia? Probably not. What John and Ellen saw was a loom inviting them to weave the fabric of their lives together into a tapestry they would never see completed. And that is the story for all of our ancestors — they weave, they make their contribution, and then they turn it over to successive generations. Catherine McAuley had the same experience. She never intended to start a religious congregation. She was advised, however, that if she wanted her work to have longevity, she needed to turn her House of Mercy into a convent. Although she opened many convents with schools and safe houses, she did not live long enough to see the tapestry of Mercy life in the United States.

  • Las Dignas, Mental Health, and the Empowerment of Salvadoran Women
    Copyright is owned by the Author of the thesis. Permission is given for a copy to be downloaded by an individual for the purpose of research and private study only. The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Gendering Trauma and Healing in a Post­ Conflict Environment: Las Dignas, Mental Health, and the Empowerment of Salvadoran Women A dissertation presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Massey University, Turitea Campus, Palmerston N01th, New Zealand Helen Margaret Leslie 1999 11 Abstract There is no doubt that the experience of war, be it war between nation states or civil war, varies considerably for both male and females. The twelve year civil war in El Salvador was no exception. Salvadoran women who worked in various sectors as combatants, urban collaborators, home-makers, nurses, cooks or radio operators for the guerrilla fo rces, experienced the war and now experience so-called peace, in ways that relate directly to the construction of the fe male sex in Salvadoran society. As a result of these gendered experiences many Salvadoran women are suffering trauma despite the cessation of the war in 1992. This trauma acts to disempower these women and to prevent them from actively participating in the important processes of post-conflict reconstruction currently taking place in Salvadoran society This thesis aims to analyse the approach taken by one Salvadoran organisation fo r fe minist political action, Las Dignas, in healing the trauma of Salvadoran women. Reviewing relevant literature on gender and development theory and gender and conflict theory, and drawing on fe minist methods in the fieldwork context, it will show how the healing process employed by Las Dignas is empowering Salvadoran women at both personal and socio-political levels.

  • Fy 2019/20 Annual Report 2
    FY 2019/20 ANNUAL REPORT 2 MESSAGE FROM LEADERSHIP Dear JVC Community Member, AST SPRING, THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC upended all of our lives changing the way we communicate and interact with each other. JVC was challenged to be agile in a time of great uncertainty. Our first priority was the safety and well-being of our JVs and staff. Staff and leadership L thoughtfully evaluated risks and worked tirelessly with our partners to bring our international volunteers home. We pivoted to a virtual environment for orientation and formation retreats, our placement agencies accommodated COVID-19 in their work/service arrangements, we downsized our office footprint and successfully applied for the relief funding provided by the CARE act to retain staff. The year was spent testing our agility and creativity. Through all of this, young people continued to apply to be of service! JVC had a waiting list of volunteers for the first time in close to a decade and 200+ volunteers committed to demonstrate their faith in action. With the restructuring of our team over the past few years, our hiring process prioritized skills and experience over physical location. This has built a strong team while increasing the capacity for remote work across time zones. Our programming shifted to a hybrid-model creating virtual spaces and new ways of JVs relating to each other. We welcomed a new slate of members to the JVC Board of Directors via Zoom and their guidance helped us navigate some challenging situations. JVC staff and Board confronted the question of “how we run JVC in this COVID-19 environment?” Our Recruiting team attended virtual career fairs and conducted zoom campus visits to create a personalized approach to accompanying prospective JVs.
