Founded with the support of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in 2006, and in partnership with 20 national organizations, Catholic Climate Covenant seeks to enfold creation care as an integral aspect of Church practices and ministries. Our board and staff remain committed to moving our Church toward collaborative action to care for our common home.
