OUR MISSION
The National Council of Catholic Women acts through its members to support, empower, and educate all Catholic women in spirituality, leadership, and service. NCCW programs respond with Gospel values to the needs of the Church and society in the modern world.
Founded in 1920 by the U.S. Catholic bishops to provide all Catholic women a common voice and an instrument of unified action

Featured Resource
We have so many resources for our members. Check this module regularly as we spotlight a new "members only" resource, so you can see what a value membership has for you and your ministries.
Retreat on Mercy Facilitator's Guide
Retreat on Mercy Participant's Guide
The Retreat on Mercy was created by the 2016 Spirituality Commission to honor the Jubilee Year of Mercy declared by Pope Francis. It can be used as a two to three-hour retreat, but also includes resources to extend the retreat to a half or full day. We are including both the facilitator and participant's guides above.

Gift of Sustainability
This year we have experienced many unfortunate circumstances caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. These have prevented us from receiving the necessary funds from our annual convention that we rely on to sustain our operation and the many ministries of the NCCW.
We are asking you to consider making a tax-deductible donation to the NCCW as a gift of sustainability. These funds will be used to continue our operations and fund expenses such as rent, payroll, and other costs associated with running an organization of our size.
Please send your gift to:
