  • Canberra and Region focus
    The Pastoral Care Council of the ACT, is established to address issues within the boundaries of the Australian Capital Territory.
    But the servicing and support of pastoral care practitioners within the wider region surrounding Canberra is inter-related, eg with the catchment for courses provided by the Canberra and Region Centre for Spirituality and Clinical Pastoral Education.
    State jurisdictions tend to get in the way!
