We’re here to help our Catholic communities thrive.

Catholic Vitality 360 has been serving the Catholic community for more than 20 years, working with church leaders, staff, board members and parishioners to develop innovative solutions that foster growth, sustainability and vitality.

Catholic Vitality 360 Founder and CEO, Bernard Dumond, is a sought-after speaker and writer who demonstrates that Development is indeed a ministry and that every parish and school is capable of building capacity and sustainable vitality. For him, this is a calling. He was raised and educated in the Catholic school system and he taught at a Catholic primary school before becoming a development specialist. Knowing firsthand the challenges inherent in the schools, parishes and dioceses he takes a hands-on, personal approach to develop workable solutions for his clients using the V7 Assessment.
