February 13, 2018, Adrian, Michigan – Communities of U.S. women religious were among the first organizations and  individuals to invest in local communities to help bring about social justice, according to a recent article in Shelterforce. The article includes the work of the Adrian Dominican Sisters through the Portfolio Advisory Board (PAB). The PAB was initiated in 1974 to help the Congregation to discern how to invest in corporations wisely and justly, and then began the practice of granting low-interest loans to nonprofit organizations that benefit communities.
