How we invest in people through our programmes

CCJP has grassroots structure throughout the Archdiocese through its volunteers referred to as CCJP Animators. In each parish there is an established CCJP Parish Committee and in each deanery there is also an established CCJP Deanery Committee which coordinates the work of CCJP Parish Committees. There are over 50 CCJP Church, Parish and Deanery Committees. Each CCJP Parish Committee has a membership of not less than 50 dedicated animators/volunteers. They are both men and women of various skills and experiences. Some of them have been members since 1995 when the Commission was established. They work purely on voluntary basis. CCJP has also almost 100 trained paralegals across the Archdiocese.

CCJP Blantyre is a social arm of the Catholic Church which was founded by the Catholic Bishops of Malawi in 1995.
