Sophia Institute for Teachers

Founded in 1983 by philosophy professor John L. Barger in Manchester, New Hampshire, Sophia Institute Press began by rescuing forgotten Catholic classics for modern readers. It has since grown into a major Catholic publisher and distributor, now also operating Sophia Institute for Teachers — a K–8 catechetical curriculum program launched in 2014 with over 250,000 students in more than 900 schools and 1,500 parishes.
