Organization

The Archdiocese of Chicago is a major faith and education institution serving Catholic schools, parishes, and community ministries across Cook and Lake counties. DePaul partners with the Archdiocese and Office of Catholic Schools on educator professional development, leadership micro-credentials, equity/racial-justice programming, and Collaboratory-documented community engagement.

Access status

  • Access: Needs an appointment or affiliation
  • Rationale: Partnerships are program- and school-specific; educator PD and CbSL placements require institutional coordination (often via COE / Steans).

Relationship to DePaul

The Archdiocese is a repeat ORS extramural funder (Donna Kiel PI; multiple FY awards for Catholic-school professional development, leadership, equity, and racial-justice programs) and a high-recurrence Collaboratory community partner (~13 activities in the June 2026 export), including Nursing and Steans-mediated placements at Archdiocese-affiliated schools (e.g. Our Lady of Tepeyac, St. Sabina pathways).

Known collaborations & connections

  • ORS extramural awards — recurring Archdiocese / Office of Catholic Schools funded programs (e.g. GRA-349–GRA-355, GRA-713, GRA-723; packets 2026-06-14-ors-annual-reports-2020-2025).
  • Collaboratory engagement — faith/education community partner across COE and health-education activities (institutional report).
  • CPS adjacency — parochial school sites (e.g. St. Pius V) roll up under EXT-013 for district-school counting; Archdiocese is the institutional faith/education partner for Catholic-school pathways.
  • Connected DePaul units: UNI-004 (Steans Center), CSH-022 (Nursing clinical/CbSL context).

Faith/education partner spanning COE professional development (ORS awards) and Steans/Nursing Collaboratory engagement; complements CPS (EXT-013) without duplicating individual school pages.

Notes

Promoted 2026-09-08 from Collaboratory A1 + ORS combined evidence. Do not confuse with obsolete June review ID EXT-015 (now Argonne National Laboratory). Individual Catholic schools remain rollups under EXT-013 or activity notes — not standalone EXT pages.
