Tell Congress to Act Now!
As Catholics, we believe in Catholic social teaching and that we must live out the principles of human dignity and the preferential option for the poor. The U.S. must continue to push for additional global vaccine donations and healthcare supplies.
Take action and remind our elected officials that by helping others abroad, we also help ourselves here at home. Click here to take action now!

"As COVID-19 vaccines become more widely available we encourage everyone to seek the facts about how the vaccine works and understand that other measures, such as wearing a mask in public, will still be necessary. Our health care workers have been heroically caring for COVID-19 patients and urgently need everyone to do their part to ensure we can finally overcome the virus,"
Sr. Mary Haddad, president and CEO, Catholic Health Association of the United States.
