The US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has released the 9th annual report of the National Review Board set up by the bishops to monitor compliance with the “Charter for the Protection of Children and Young People” (the so-called Dallas Charter).
Notably, the Board itself did not write the report; it was written for the Board by the Secretariat of Child and Youth Protection of the USCCB, which is the procedure set up by the bishops in the Charter itself.
The USCCB calls the report an “audit” which then can be characterized in the USCCB press release accompanying a link to the Report, by the headline – “Child Protection Audits Find Nearly All Dioceses Compliant.”
