Our Work

Grassroots Outreach

Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good has created a comprehensive grassroots outreach program to bring the message of Catholic social teaching to lay Catholics at the local level. Working with our Catholic organizational partners, we are building a network of Catholic leaders to promote greater awareness of Catholic social teachings in local areas across the country. We are also working with Catholic leaders to promote the common good message in the media. For more information, visit our GET INVOLVED section or contact Victoria Kovari at vkovari@catholicsinalliance.org.

Media and Communications

Catholics in Alliance's Media and Communications program is designed to infuse the full message of Catholic Social Teaching into the national dialogue on faith and public life. We accomplish this through:

Our Media Resource Center, which provides information about Catholic social teaching and contemporary issues to members of the press, public officials, and others interested in issues relating to Catholicism and public life.
Voices for the Common Good Speakers Bureau, which is a group of Catholic commentators consisting of prominent experts on the Catholic social tradition, including priests, women religious, scholars, theologians, and Catholic organizational leaders.
Ongoing work with members of the theological community to articulate a full and accurate representation of Catholic social teaching, and to suggest practical policy to promote greater awareness of our Church's social vision.
The Catholic Media Report is a weekly compilation of news stories and opinion pieces concerning Catholic social teaching and social justice issues. To receive the Catholic Media report click here.
