Multicultural study advances


This winter, 2014, the National Religious Vocation Conference will begin formally surveying the major superiors of U.S. religious communities on the topic of integrating candidates of non-Caucasian, non-Anglo descent. The study will be conducted for NRVC by the Center for Research in the Apostolate at Georgetown (CARA), with senior research associate Dr. Mary Gautier leading it.

The study will examine how communities welcome and retain non-Caucasian candidates during formation. NRVC hopes to identify what is helpful and eventually to develop resources that can help communities successfully welcome candidates from a variety of ethnic and racial backgrounds.
