Summary/Abstract: In the present study, I shall highlight the current legal framework according to which the Romanian Orthodox Church carries out its social-philanthropic and medical assistance activity so as to the ongoing collaboration between ROC and the state institutions. Keeping in mind that the legal provisions in the field encourage the social involvement of religious denominations by reifying their partnership with central and local public administrative bodies, I aim to emphasize the manner in which the Romanian Orthodox Church approached the issue of social service provisions.
