ASJ cohorts gathered ten times virtually in an academic year and read four to five books each semester. The virtual sessions included orientations, lectures, plenary conversations, and small group discussions. For four of the ten gatherings, ASJ cohorts participated in weekend intensive courses at EDS at Union. Designed specifically for the ASJ program, these courses were also open to graduate students at Union Theological Seminary and the broader Union community.
The Anglicanism and Social Justice program is on pause for 2023-2024, but sign up for emails to be the first to learn about future offerings.
