Certainly Northern Ireland is not immune to drug and alcohol problems that beset many communities around the world today. When people choose to use drugs we cannot ignore that fact. All of us need to play our part in Stormont reducing the harm that this creates. This doesn’t though fall neatly into any one area of responsibility. In recent years we have developed strategies and policies across a range of sectors, including health, education and criminal justice. More recently such initiatives have been brought together under the broad umbrella known as the Joint Implementation Model. Under the Model we seek to integrate strategy at a regional level with action at a local level. Partnership is the key to this. Partnership is a particular characteristic of how we work in Northern Ireland. We also have a long and strong tradition of community development and community action with initiatives based on a local assessment of need. I note that the Conference programme has examples of such initiatives from across the world. I trust that this Conference will provide opportunities for the continuing dissemination of best practice in this important area. I congratulate all those who have made the conference a reality. There has been much effort to get to this stage. I encourage you all to participate fully over the next five days. Let’s ensure that this conference will make a positive contribution to harm reduction around the globe.

  • Editorial: the First Case of ‘Vos Estis’ in Action, And
    Editorial: The first case of ‘Vos Estis’ in action, and its fallout At the request of Pope Francis, Bishop Michael Hoeppner of Crookston, Minnesota, resigned April 13 after an investigation into whether or not Bishop Hoeppner had carried out “acts or omissions intended to interfere with or avoid civil or canonical investigations of clerical sexual misconduct.” The investigation that led to his resignation stemmed from reports that the bishop “had at times failed to observe applicable norms when presented with allegations of sexual abuse involving clergy of the Diocese of Crookston,” the diocese stated on the day of Bishop Hoeppner’s resignation. To put it in layman’s terms: The bishop was accused of not reporting abuse to Church and civil authorities after it had been reported to him — and even worse, he was said to have tried to coerce a victim into retracting his allegation of abuse (which had been made against a popular priest of the diocese). The investigation and resignation were among the first fruits of the new canonical standards decreed by Pope Francis just shy of two years ago — on May 7, 2019 — via the motu proprio “Vos Estis Lux Mundi,“ which established a universal baseline of procedural norms for the reporting of clergy sexual abuse and related cover-ups. The norms went into effect June 1 of the same year for a three-year “ad experimentum” phase. On Sept. 10, 2019, Archbishop Bernard A. Hebda of St. Paul and Minneapolis, whose jurisdiction as metropolitan includes the Diocese of Crookston, announced that the new norms were going to be put to the test for the first time in the world, and the investigation of Bishop Hoeppner began.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Dear Friends
    Catholic Community FOUNDATION OF MINNESOTA onlyCOMMUNION IN THE MIDST OF CRISIS together ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Dear Friends, None of us will forget 2020 anytime soon. The pandemic, together with the social unrest in the wake of George Floyd’s unjust death, have taken a heavy toll. At the same time, I’m very proud of how our Catholic community has responded. In the midst of dual crises, in a time of fear and uncertainty, we have come together to help our neighbors and support Catholic organizations. Only together can we achieve success, as Archbishop Hebda says, “On our own, there’s little that we’re able to accomplish. It’s only with collaboration, involving the thinking and generosity of many folks that we’re able to put together a successful plan.” The Catholic Community Foundation of Minnesota (CCF) has never been better prepared to meet the challenges of the moment. Within days of the suspension of public Masses in March, CCF established onlyCOMMUNION IN THE MIDST OF CRISIS the Minnesota Catholic Relief Fund. Immediately, hundreds of generous people made extraordinary donations to support our local Catholic community. Shortly thereafter, CCF began deploying monies to parishes and schools in urgent need. This was all possible because CCF had the operational and relational infrastructure in place to act swiftly: the connections, the trust, the expertise, and the overwhelming support of our donors. CCF has proven it’s just as capable of serving the long-term needs of our Catholic community. together Through our Legacy Fund and a variety of endowments, individuals can support Catholic ministries in perpetuity, while parishes partner with CCF to safeguard their long-term financial stability.
