Behind the Mission: A Conversation with Dr. Maria Elena Hallion

This week on Talking Catholic, we sit down with Dr. Maria Elena Hallion, Executive Director of Catholic Charities of South Jersey, to reflect on her first year leading the organization.

Dr. Hallion offers insight into what’s new and what’s next for Catholic Charities in the Diocese of Camden — from strengthening volunteer outreach and internship opportunities to improving internal communications and expanding essential services.

In this candid conversation, we talk about the behind-the-scenes work that keeps the mission moving forward — and the people who make it all happen. It’s a great listen for anyone who wants to better understand the daily work of Catholic Charities and how to support their mission to serve our neighbors in need.
