The Florida Catholic Conference is an agency of the Catholic Bishops of Florida, established in 1969.  It speaks
for the Church in matters of public policy, serves as liaison to government and the legislature, and coordinates
communications and activities between the Church and secular agencies.   The Bishops of the seven Dioceses
in Florida constitute its Board of Directors.

It is the Church’s role as a community of faith to call attention to the moral and religious dimension of secular issues, to keep alive the values of the Gospel as a norm for social and political life and to point out the demands of the Christian faith for a just transformation of society.  Individual Catholics share in this responsibility and are called on to become informed, active and responsible participants in the political process.  Participation in the process of governing is part of our democratic system.  The communication to a legislator of a strongly held position on an issue of public policy thus fulfills both spiritual and civil purposes.
