CCHD Scandal In The Archdiocese of Cincinnati

With all the focus on the world-wide disaster that is Amoris Laetitia, it can be very easy to lose track of the local debacles funded by the Catholic Campaign for Human Development - that is, those who contribute via the in-pew collections.

The Peaslee Neighborhood Center is funded by the Archdiocese of Cincinnati via the CCHD.  How much national CCHD money flows to them I don't know.  We do know that Peaslee has teamed with the local "black lives matter crowd" to host a forum on the Black Panthers.  That means that Cincinnati Catholics paid to promote the Black Panthers.  Such an innovative use for Catholic dollars!  What will they think of next?  What kind of fool am I to ask that question?


  1. Cannot understand why Catholics are still donating to the CCHD. I have spread the word in my Parish that some of that money goes for very evil anti Catholic initiatives, and to please NOT GIVE A PENNY! I was told several years ago that in Chicago, it's 'different' and the money stays right here, to which I replied....'and I'm sure you have a nice piece of property to sell me too'. Until the entire structure of the CCHD is overhauled, there is no way to trust that the money goes where it is supposed to go.

    1. Back in 2010, when Rey Flores was running the Chicago CCHD, real reform was in the works. However, the progressives in that Archdiocese were having none of that. They arranged things so that Rey was fired and it was back to business as usual. See
