On Sunday 28 February, a lively radio discussion took place about the policy priorities for Catholic Social Services.

ABC Religion Journalist, John Cleary, was joined in studio by leaders from Catholic Social Services including, Dr Maria Harries, Chair of Catholic Social Services Australia (CSSA), Marcelle Mogg, CEO of CSSA and Denis Fitzgerald, CEO of Catholic Social Services Victoria.

The Issue: Caring Catholics

Catholic Social Services Australia has gathered its extensive network of agencies together to review, reimagine, and renew in the face of the Church’s current challenges.

The panel focused on the Year of Mercy and what Mercy means in the context of Catholic Social Services. The leaders also commented on the need to be compassionate, non-judgemental and the importance of Gospel centred responses to vulnerability.
