United States Catholic Conference

(On July 1, 2001, the NCCB [National Conference of Catholic Bishops] and the USCC [United States Catholic Conference] were combined to form the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB). The USCCB continues all the work formerly done by the NCCB and the USCC with the same staff. The bishops themselves form approximately 50 committees, each with its own particular responsibility)
