Mission Statement

We are Good Shepherd. Our mission is shaped by our inheritance of the vision, courage and audacity of St. Mary Euphrasia Pelletier and the Good Shepherd tradition she began. Ours is a vision of promoting a world of justice and peaceful co-existence. Ours is the courage to embrace wholeheartedly innovative and creative ways of enabling people of all cultural, religious and social backgrounds to enjoy the fullness of life, which is the right of every human being. Ours is the inheritance to boldly challenge those structures and beliefs that diminish human dignity. We work to ensure the value of every human being, the communities that enable us all to thrive and the integrity of the environment that guarantees both.

Strategic Plan and the Community

Our Strategic Plan 2005-2009 directs us to:

• Give emphasis to working in local communities, to resource them and encourage self-determination
• Maintain a commitment (though not exclusively) to women and girls
• Combine research and action to address systemic and institutional sources of harm and injustice
• Be honest and transparent about success and failure
• Be flexible and form cooperative alliances with others who share our values and a commitment to social justice
