Testimonials
“I am very pleased with how some of our Catholic parishes have involved themselves in the Spokane Alliance. I have heard first hand from members of the parishes who have been tremendously energized and had a change of heart in regards to their role in the community. Catholic social teaching calls us to participation in the community… and this is a wonderful way we might work together to serve the common good in our area.”
The Most Reverend William Skylstad
Bishop, Catholic Diocese of Spokane

“The involvement of labor in the Spokane area with the Alliance has been a great experience. It has already created change and the support of the other organizations were instrumental in furthering some of labor's initiatives. I look forward to working with the Alliance in the future and would recommend it to any or all of our organizations."
