Please find below a letter entitled "Response to the Economic Crisis" to the Pastors and Principals of the Archdiocese of Boston regarding pastoral responses to the  economic crisis.  This information was gathered from Pastors and Principals in the Archdiocese who responded to a request to share their best practices in order that other parishes and schools may benefit from this exchange of  information.  In addition, Catholic Charities and the Planning Office for Urban Affairs has  provided some great resource information and materials towards this same end.
