      Description: Call to Action (CTA) is an organization of Catholics established in 1978 in response to the 1976 U.S. Bishops Call to Action Conference in Detroit, Michigan. In 1990, the Call to Action board developed a Call for Reform in the Catholic Church, a pastoral letter capsulizing the organization's cry for a church responsive to the world's needs and a call for the church to examine its own record on issues of justice, equality, and participation. The statement or pastoral letter was printed as a full page advertisement in the New York Times on Ash Wednesday 1990 [i.e., Feb. 28, 1990, p. B4], along with the names of 4,500 signers and an invitation for more signatures. (The Call for Reform in the Catholic Church is reprinted at http://www.ctaww.org/documents/a_call_for_reform.htm.) The Call To Action records include publications created or collected by the organization, ready reference files documenting issues such as peace and justice, celibacy for priests, birth control, ordination for women, clergy sex abuse, and the nuclear disarmament movement. It also contains files about Call to Action's Annual Conference, their Performing Arts Ministry, and the 1990 Call to Reform pastoral letter. Series 001.002: Other Publications 1947-2008, contains files on Conservative Catholic Influence in Europe 1997 and Opposing Organizations 1992-1997.
