FLORIDA CATHOLIC ADVOCACY NETWORK (FLCAN)

FLCAN is a statewide, online community established by the bishops of Florida that exists to connect, educate, and mobilize Catholics across Florida’s seven dioceses on public policy issues pertaining to life, dignity, and the common good.

Pope Francis reminds us, “Each son and daughter of a given country has a mission, a personal and social responsibility.” As Catholics we are called to participate in public life and to apply Gospel values to our political activities as a joyful public witness to the Church’s social teachings.

FLCAN provides the opportunity to speak on behalf of the poor, the disabled, the sick or dying, the unborn, the elderly, families and children, immigrants, the imprisoned, and others in need. By raising our voices together, we strengthen the presence of the Catholic faithful in the public square.

FLCAN subscribers receive via email:

• Action alerts on key bills at both the state and federal levels that allow for quick and easy messaging to elected officials
• Reports, summaries, and educational materials that identify legislative proposals affecting issues important to our faith
• Calls to prayer for the people of our state and nation, and for our elected leaders
