During the June 2018 Plenary Assembly, the full Conference of Bishops voted in favor of proposed revisions to the Charter. The revisions are the result of the dedicated efforts and collaboration of the Committees on the Protection of Children and Young People; Canonical Affairs and Church Governance; Clergy, Consecrated Life and Vocations; the National Review Board, and the Office of General Counsel.

We dedicate the work of this program to the protection of St. Joseph and offer the following prayer.
St. Joseph, God entrusted his greatest treasures, Mary and Jesus, to our protection.
We place our programs under your patronage and ask that you pray for us that we continue to maintain safe environments for all that you have been entrusted to us.
We ask that we continue to be good role models and protectors for are vulnerable, as you were for your family.
We ask this in the name of your beloved Mary, and our Lord Jesus Christ.
