This program, CHA's annual Sponsorship Program Preceding the Leadership Conference of Women Religious Assembly, will provide a forum for discussing sponsorship and governance amongst those serving in health care, education, and social service ministries of the Catholic Church.

These ministries have traveled different journeys from their beginnings to today and through offering insight into some of the "whys" and "hows" of each, we can continue to build a learning community around this evolution's opportunities and challenges.

This complimentary, one-day program is open to all sponsors, corporate members, trustees, CEOs, and other leaders of Catholic ministry. Sessions will incorporate facilitated process to enhance discussion around each presentation topic including: trends in sponsorship and governance across Catholic ministry, challenges and opportunities each bring, formation and succession planning, and other topics generated through our discernment.

This event will next be held on August 1 from approximately 8 a.m. until 3 p.m. in Denver prior to the opening of the 2008 LCWR-CMSM Joint Assembly.
