Advocacy and Awareness

Our aim is to address systemic injustices, and inform behaviours and attitudes underlying unhealthy practices towards aging.

In 2022, the National Religious Retirement Office (NRRO) reported that among responding women’s religious institutes in the USA, only 7% were adequately funded to provide for their elderly and infirm sisters in retirement.

The number of sisters over the age of 70 worldwide is likely to increase in the next decade. Even in countries where most Catholic sisters are young, like Kenya and Zambia, studies show that in most religious institutes, more members are advancing in age than there are younger sisters entering.
