YOUNGSTOWN —

The Catholic Diocese of Youngstown has been found compliant with the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People during its annual compliance audit.

The charter was developed in 2002 in response to the sexual-abuse crises in the Church. It was revised in 2005 and 2011.

The on-site audit was conducted in October by Stonebridge Business Partners, an independent firm based in Rochester, N.Y.
