Global Competency
Social Justice and Engagement
Social justice is the concept of attempting to achieve justice at every societal level. Good leaders should be concerned with the dignity and rights of those on their team as well as those they serve.

The following links offer information about social justice and contain suggestions about what you can do to help justice be achieved for all.
