National Advisory Committee

The Center is honored to count on the advice and experience of a distinguished group of women and men. They have come together, at the Center’s invitation, to form the national Advisory Committee. 

Latinos/as and non-Latinos/as, Roman Catholics, Episcopalians and Protestants, theologians, social scientists, pastors, community leaders-- the members of the national Advisory Committee (who serve for renewable three-year terms) represent many of the research interests and communities the Center serves. We are enriched by their expertise and wisdom, and we are grateful to all of them for their cooperation with and support of the Center’s work.
