Under the direction of Tennessee's three bishops, the Tennessee Catholic Conference:​

  • Takes positions on public policies and programs affecting the common good of all Tennesseans.   

  • Speaks for the Roman Catholic Church before all branches of our state government and before groups concerned with social policy.

  • Identifies needs in areas of morality, health, welfare, education, religious freedom, human and civil rights, and determine ways to meet those needs. 

  • Fosters public understanding of the Church's teaching on social issues.
