The Archdiocesan Commission for Communications (ACC) aims to inspire the Catholic faithful in the Archdiocese of Port of Spain and actively contribute to a true and better understanding of the Catholic faith and the Church’s viewpoint on matters, which affect the life of its members and the wider society.

The Commission has been mandated to establish parish-based Internet Cafes in rural areas throughout the country and will also be establishing a Catholic Communications Resource Centre. The Commission is responsible for disseminating the Church’s news releases and other statements, and will assist other departments and Commissions where necessary, to get their message out.
