The Regis University Institute on the Common Good seeks to facilitate dialogue aimed at developing strategies to resolve important community issues. Rooted in the tradition of Roman Catholic social teaching, the Institute asserts the dignity and social nature of the human person. Neither liberal nor conservative in its posture, the Institute operates on the belief that a healthy society is committed to the welfare of all its members, especially those without a voice, suggesting a balance that avoids the extremes of exclusive individualism or totalitarianism.
