“BishopAccountability.org provides a valuable service by pulling together documents of clergy abuse from New Hampshire and other jurisdictions and making that information easily accessible by the public. By offering this service, BishopAccountability.org helps victims of clergy abuse know that they are not alone and protects against future abuse by giving the public information about the abusers. Most importantly, however, the documents available through BishopAccountability.org demonstrate for future generations what terrible damage is caused when organizations and their leaders foster secrecy and complacency toward child sexual abuse.”

—Kelly A. Ayotte, New Hampshire Attorney General

“The on-line archive of BishopAccountability.org will give us access to the facts and analysis we need to discover the truth. The truth will help us save children from the terrible suffering that victims of sexual abuse undergo, not only in the Church but in all the institutions in which children are vulnerable.”

—Leon J. Podles, Ph.D. Senior Editor Touchstone, A Journal of Mere Christianity, President of Crossland Foundation, author of the forthcoming A Harsh Light: Sexual Abuse in the Catholic Church

“BishopAccountability.org offers a unique and unsurpassed resource for individuals who are seriously interested in the recent history and current state of the church. It provides hard-to-obtain material in a highly organized and clear format. BishopAccountability.org has been and will continue to be used by religious educators, journalists, clergy and seminarians, theologians, and serious lay men and women all over the world.”

—Stephen J. Pope, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Theology, Boston College, and editor of the forthcoming Common Calling: The Laity & Governance of the Catholic Church

“On a complex and overwhelming subject that is riddled with partial information and misinformation, BishopAccountability.org provides a "one stop shop" of accurate and balanced information. To find, arrange, store and help explain so many crucial documents in one place is both a tremendous achievement and a valued public service.”
— David Clohessy, executive director, SNAP, Survivors Network of Those Abused by Priests

“The truth is often the only effective weapon against powerful institutions. BishopAccountability.org should be applauded for its efforts to bring to light the truth of widespread and heinous childhood sexual abuse by the Catholic Church's clergy. By gathering this information on one site, BishopAccountability.org has provided crucial resources for law enforcement and legal reform.”

does this.”
