Who We Are
Helping You Thrive in Your Family Ministry
The Catholic Family Life Association (CLFA) offers support and professional enrichment to those who minister to families. Our goal is to foster a family perspective and advocate for family in the Church and society.
Formerly known as the National Association of Catholic Family Life Ministers (NACFLM), we recently changed our name to the Catholic Family Life Association to reflect our expanding outreach to individuals, families and dioceses. Our core mission remains the same: to serve family life ministers.
Whether you work with spouses, engaged couples, singles, grandparents or families in crisis, you’ll get the resources you need to help families live out their God-given vocation to love.

Working With You in Fidelity to the Church
When you become a member of CFLA, you can rest assured that you are working with a ministry trusted by bishops, priests and the USCCB (United States Catholic Conference of Bishops). We continue to collaborate with the Committee on Laity, Marriage, Family Life & Youth to help our members to better serve their dioceses.
Your Partner in Family Ministry
We come from many different backgrounds, but we share a passion for
helping families and family life ministers thrive in their vocations.
Meeting the Needs of an Ever-Changing Church
The CFLA’s Federation for Hispanic Ministry serves those ministering to the Church’s Hispanic families. You’ll find resources in both English and Spanish.
