Sumario:The Confraternity of Christian Doctrine (CCD) concept of instruction was strongly promoted by Pope Pius X in the early twentieth century in recognition of the need for religious education in rural. In 1934, the Bishops' Annual Meeting established an episcopal committee on CCD with a national center in Washington, D.C. The episcopal committee was dissolved in 1969 and succeeded by the Committee for the Department of Education. The center became operational in 1935, transferred to the Education Department in 1969 and dissolved in 1974. A new organization, the National Conference of Diocesan Directors (NCDD), was operated as a part of the Bishops Conference, 1967-1982, thereafter becoming an independent entity now known as the National Conference of Catechetical Leadership (NCCL). Records consist of constitutions, by-laws, and incorporation; committee meeting minutes and related material; and various publications, including manuals, leaflets, and The New American Bible.
