CSCC 1st Members' Forum
The first CSCC Members' Forum was held at the Catholic Junior College Training and Development Centre on 28 April 2007. This was the first gathering of the various Catholic social & community organizations. There were 100 participants from 27 organizations. The forum provided a platform for participants to get to know each other, share their experiences, gain insight and gather feedback.
The theme of the Members' Forum was: Living Our Social Mission – Working Together as Parts of One Body. |
