Agape Center for Human Dignity

Rooted in faith, grounded in love, open to all

The Agape Center for Human Dignity celebrates the dignity and worth of every person by leading a campus culture where encounter and welcome are at the heart of the community.

Mission

The Agape Center for Human Dignity, rooted in Sacred Heart University’s mission and Catholic identity, is committed to fostering an environment where every student can grow, belong and thrive. With a name inspired by the Greek word that describes a divine love for all, the center works through partnerships with Unity Clubs, campus offices and community collaborators to affirm the inherent value and inviolable dignity of every individual. We empower Pioneers to live with integrity, honor, human dignity and community grounded in the unconditional love of God. In their development as future leaders, Students are guided to discover their purpose, strengthen their character and prepare to make a meaningful impact beyond Sacred Heart University.

Vision

The Agape Center for Human Dignity envisions a campus culture where the dignity of every person is universally honored, belonging is strengthened, and dialogue leads to deeper understanding. Guided by the spirit of God’s unconditional love, or agape, we seek to form a community where all Pioneers flourish, contribute meaningfully and embody Sacred Heart’s mission in transforming the world with compassion and justice.
