This program is open to CHA Members only.

CHA's Sponsor Formation Program for Catholic Health Care prepares individuals for service as members of Juridic Persons to carry out the health ministry of the Catholic Church.

In addition to a rich grounding in the theological and canonical principles that apply to all sponsorship models, CHA's formation program offers participants opportunities for spiritual development personally and as members of a community who share a deep commitment to advance Jesus' healing mission in the world today.

The program consists of four two-day sessions in the fall and spring. Gatherings focus on developing and enhancing critical competencies for sponsorship through a combination of reflection, participant involvement, group interaction, and presentations by nationally recognized ministry leaders and speakers. Each session will be complemented with a virtual session to deepen the participants' experience.

Objective:

To prepare individuals for the role of sponsor by enabling them to articulate, integrate, and implement the foundational elements of Catholic health care sponsorship.
