About Us

Holy Names Educational Ministries (HNEM) is the sponsoring body for our six high schools and two other educational ministries. HNEM was created by the Sisters of the Holy Names U.S.-Ontario Province and approved by the Vatican to provide a sustainable way to affirm Catholic identity and to ensure that the SNJM Charism and Core Values continue in our educational ministries. HNEM is led by a committed group of Sisters and lay leaders who strongly believe in our ministries and want to do our part to ensure their viable mission-focused future.

“It’s a privilege to support the Holy Names ministries as they empower students and communities to develop their potential and make a difference in the world.” 

Mary Mansell, Vice-Chair of HNEM
