Moving Beyond Compliance to Conversion

Moving From Compliance to Conversion is an article with Archbishop Brunett on the USCCB website in their Child and Youth Protection section from their resources for Child Abuse Prevention month. There are some worthwhile resources here for use in pastorally addressing concerns and questions about child sexual abuse.

This article is based on the full address Moving Beyond Compliance to Conversion delivered by Archbishop Alex J. Brunett to the Third Annual National Safe Environment Leadership Conference in Seattle, Washington on April 8, 2008.
