Catholic Action for Social Entrepreneurship

Published Research

Miller Center achieves its mission in partnership with social enterprises and other organizations. We build upon on our university’s Jesuit Catholic tradition by creating more intentional partnerships with Catholic institutions through an initiative called CASE (Catholic Action for Social Entrepreneurship). CASE focuses our partnership efforts toward Catholic religious orders and institutions, with special attention to the needs of Africa and North America. Our goals are to:

  1. Transform Catholic social ministries in to social enterprises, using Miller Center methodology.
  2. Provide formation for religious order members to become apostles (leaders and influencers) for social entrepreneurship, by providing experiential, hands-on training.
  3. Engage youth by providing opportunities to realize their vision of social entrepreneurship as a vocation.
