The Latest from Cardus Social Cities

Holy places offer sanctuary to all
REPORT June 21st

Holy places provide sanctuary in many different ways.

Cardus' Halo Project measures in monetary terms the value that neighbourhood congregations offer to a community’s social infrastructure. The concept is phrased like this: "If this congregation disappeared tomorrow and we had to replace everything, including all of the social supports, programs, care and so on, what would that cost?"

REPORT June 18th

We need to better map the distribution of charities in Canada to address the uneven availability of the services common- good organizations provide, writes Cardus Social Cities Program Director Milton Friesen.
