Under the direction of our Board, Committees, and Tennessee's three bishops, the Tennessee Catholic Public Policy Commission will:​

​

• Review and analyze the content and implications of all proposed legislation,

• Take positions on public policies and programs affecting the common good of all Tennessee citizens,

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

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

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

​

The TNCPPC board and committees are made up of clergy and lay persons selected from through out the state.
