CAINA’s Mission:

In support of the Catholic Church’s New Evangelization, the Catholic Apologetics Institute of North America (CAINA) provides informative and interesting presentations and writings to help Catholics better understand and uphold our faith heritage to an increasingly secular society in need of hope and the Christian vision.

Since CAINA’s founding in 2011, we have done over 570 multimedia presentations in 23 dioceses worldwide.
