Private Refugee Sponsorship Report

Catholic Social Services facilitates private refugee sponsorship on behalf of the Archdiocese of Edmonton. In the spring of 2019, Archbishop Richard Smith and Catholic Social Services CEO, Troy Davies, arranged for a roundtable gathering of parish representatives who participated in the  sponsorship of refugee families, particularly in the last five to ten years. The aim was to listen to the parishes’ experiences of sponsorship and to learn from their successes and challenges so that these insights could be shared with others.
