Honesty Protects The Vulnerable
And Heals The Wounded

We are women and men who have been sexually abused by Catholic clergy. We are trying to recover from this trauma and to protect others from being abused in the future.

At their historic meeting in Dallas, America's Catholic bishops pledged greater openness about the sexual abuse of children by priests. Yet much of what we know of these horrific crimes still comes straight from criminal prosecutions, civil lawsuits and the news media.

Catholics need to know who and where the abusers are, so they can protect their children. Victims deserve to know the whole truth of these crimes. Catholics deserve to know how much of our money is being spent on attorneys, public relations professionals, settlements, and therapy for abusive priests. Openness is an important step toward prevention and healing.

Please join us in urging Bishop Cronin to be
more honest about this critical issue.
