Marking the 10-year anniversary of the largest of three grand jury reports, a panel hosted by the University of Pennsylvania’s Program for Research on Religion and Urban Civil Society reflected on the “Ramifications of the Philadelphia Grand Jury Report on Child Sex Abuse in the Archdiocese: Lessons Learned and Lessons Spurned” was held on Oct. 28.
When word that Pope Francis would visit Philadelphia this fall reached students in John J. DiIulio Jr.’s Religion and Public Policy class last spring, there was excitement. The announcement focused the students’ attention on the Catholic Church, and the idea for the panel on the Philadelphia grand jury reports on child sex abuse in the Philadelphia Archdiocese grew from there.
