The Crossland Foundation

Focusing on the advancement of Christian culture

Founded by Dr. Leon Podles, the Crossland Foundation published Sacrilege, an in-depth look at sexual abuse in the Catholic Church, An Irish Tragedy, How Sex Abuse By Irish Priests Helped Cripple The Catholic Church, as well as other related materials.
