Program Description

The Catholic Diocese of Arlington-Catholic Charities Pre-doctoral Residency Training Program (CCDA-RTP) is located in the Arlington Diocese in Northern Virginia. The Diocese was founded in 1974 and is comprised of 21 counties, ranging from the metropolitan area adjacent to Washington DC, to the mountains in the Shenandoah valley, to the southern regions of the Chesapeake Bay.  There are 70 parishes and 41 diocesan schools, and over 450,000 registered Catholics, although in the training program residents will encounter and serve people from a diverse range of faiths, or no faith at all (Total Population in the Arlington Diocese boundaries: ~3 million). 

 

The CCDA-RTP consists of training sites within the Diocesan structure (Tribunal, Permanent Diaconate, Office for Family Life, Office for Schools) and within Catholic Charities (Family Services Department, Transitional Housing programs).
