Mission: The Toledo Diocesan Council of Catholic Women seeks to strengthen and broaden the network of affiliated parish organizations, by providing programs to respond to their needs and the needs of the Catholic Community.

The Toledo Diocesan Council of Catholic Women recognizes the diversity of its people to respect and respond to their differences. The Toledo Diocesan Council of Catholic Women seeks to develop spirituality and provide motivation for evangelization, and seeks to provide educational opportunities for faith development, and to challenge its members to respond with Gospel values to all they do in serving the Church and society in the modern world.

The Council represents nineteen counties in Northwest Ohio, which comprises the Toledo Diocese under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of Toledo.

The Toledo Diocesan Council of Catholic Women was organized on April 11 and 12, 1928, at a convention formed for that purpose.

1. To unite Catholic women’s organizations and individual Catholic women of the diocese, to develop their spiritual growth, to motivate and assist them to act upon current issues in the Church and society.
2. To be a medium through which the Catholic women of the diocese may speak and act on matters of common concern.
3. To be a representative Catholic women’s body in relating to other organizations and diocesan agencies dealing with current concerns.
4. To promote the spiritual and material undertakings recommended by the Bishop, and to work as a part of the National Council in the interests of the U.S. Catholic Conference.
