The purpose of the Herbert and Elinor Nootbaar Institute on Law, Religion, and Ethics is to bring the redemptive capacities of religious faith and moral insight to law, to explore how the practice of law might be a religious calling, and to find ways in which persons trained in law can serve "the least of these" throughout the world. We seek to do so at a theoretical level through seminars, conferences, and scholarship. We also seek to put theory into action, working with governments and human rights organizations around the globe to bring peace, justice, and the rule of law.
