An Evening with Gary Haugen
Join us for an evening conversation with Gary Haugen, CEO and founder of International Justice Mission (IJM). Before founding IJM, Gary served as a human rights attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice and the Director of the United Nations’ investigation on the Rwandan genocide. His career embodies one way to integrate the Christian calling with the practice of law. We look forward to hearing Gary’s reflections on law and justice in dialogue with LVF Program Director, Professor John Inazu - including how Christian lawyers can integrate their faith and work to create a true sense of vocation.
