Recent moves5 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Direct peers

• Leadership Conference of Women Religious: The Leadership Conference of Women Religious (LCWR) is the national coordinating body for leaders of Catholic women religious congregations in the United States. Like DSC, it exists to provide a collective voice, shared resources, and advocacy on justice concerns for its member congregations, but it covers all women religious rather than only the Dominican family.
• Conference of Major Superiors of Men: The Conference of Major Superiors of Men (CMSM) is the analogous coordinating association for leaders of men's religious institutes in the United States. It mirrors DSC's role as an umbrella body for religious congregations, providing shared advocacy, formation resources, and institutional representation.
• Dominican Sisters International Confederation: The Dominican Sisters International Confederation is the global umbrella body connecting Dominican Sisters organizations worldwide. It is a direct functional peer and existing partner of DSC, operating at the international level where DSC operates regionally for North America.
• Religious Formation Conference: The Religious Formation Conference supports initial and ongoing formation programs for Catholic religious institutes in the United States. It is a peer in the formation-and-novitiate space that DSC engages through partners like the Collaborative Dominican Novitiate.
• Dominican Youth Movement USA: The Dominican Youth Movement USA is a youth-focused Dominican ministry organization that supports young people in Dominican life and vocation discernment. It is both a partner and a functional peer of DSC in the youth and formation space.
• Collaborative Dominican Novitiate: The Collaborative Dominican Novitiate is a shared formation program for Dominican women considering religious life. It is a partner of DSC and a direct functional peer in the formation and discernment space that DSC's 'Becoming Dominican' pathway leads into.

Broad incumbents

• National Catholic Educational Association: NCEA is the largest Catholic education membership organization in the United States, serving Catholic elementary, secondary, and higher education institutions. It is a broader incumbent peer because DSC's Charism Initiative and formation work operate in an adjacent faith-based educational space.
• Association of Catholic Colleges and Universities: ACCU is the national association for Catholic higher education institutions in the U.S. It is a broader incumbent peer in the Catholic institutional coordination space, sharing DSC's membership-association model and advocacy posture.
• Catholic Charities USA: Catholic Charities USA is the national membership organization for Catholic social service agencies. It is a broader incumbent peer in Catholic institutional coordination, sharing DSC's advocacy posture and member-driven funding model.
• United States Conference of Catholic Bishops: The USCCB is the national assembly of Catholic bishops in the United States, serving as the official coordinating and policy voice for the U.S. Catholic Church. It is a broader institutional peer that operates at a larger scale and with more authority than DSC, which coordinates a smaller subset (Dominican Sisters congregations).
