Who We Are

Rooted in Catholic Social Teaching

Catholic Social Teaching shapes what we publish and who writes for us. Human dignity means asking what a company's labor practices reveal about how it treats workers as full human beings, not just whether its stock is undervalued. The preferential option for the poor means our editions reach underprivileged communities free, with every donation recycled into more copies. Subsidiarity means editors guide their own teams and every writer starts from the same position. — Written by Alexander Golden

Health, Caregiving, and the Common Good

"In a world where there is so much to be done, I felt strongly impressed that there must be something for me to do." Dorothea Dix's words drive our health coverage. Millions of Americans go without care or are pushed into debt by it, so we report on the business of health in a way anyone can understand. Nurses have always known what the Church calls the common good: a society is only well when every person in it can flourish. — Written by Caroline Woram

Business Ethics in Action

In Gallup's most recent poll, 75% of Americans rated nurses' ethics as high or very high, the 25th straight year nursing ranked most trusted, while stockbrokers and business executives sat near the bottom. That gap is why this pillar exists. Finance moves the most money and touches the most lives, yet Americans trust it least, so we arm our readers with the standards the most trusted professions already live by. — Written by Caroline Woram
