Online Discussion Next Week: Religious Charities

Join us on Tuesday at noon for a live online discussion about the future of religious charities. Taking your questions will be:

William O’Keefe, the senior director of advocacy for Catholic Relief Services, in Baltimore, an organization that receives federal money to provide overseas development aid.

Paul Lichterman, an associate professor of sociology and religion at the University of Southern California, in Los Angeles, and co-editor of the book Civic Life in American Religion.

Joshua Hale, executive director of the Big Shoulders Fund, in Chicago. The fund has raised more than $155-million to help defray tuition and operating costs for 93 of Chicago’s most-needy inner-city Catholic schools.

The discussion will start at noon, Eastern time, and is open to everyone, not just Chronicle subscribers.

People who ask questions in advance have a better chance of receiving answers during the online discussion.

  1. How real are the threats to the special protections held by religious charities? Is it likely that Jewish, Christian, and charities based in other religious beliefs will no longer be able to require that their personnel hold to the same tenets?
