BoardUnited States Conference of Catholic Bishops National Pastoral Framework
This National Pastoral Framework by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops outlines a strategic approach for ministries with youth and young adults, centered on the principles of 'Listen, Teach, and Send.' Inspired by the Emmaus story, the framework aims to empower the Catholic community—including pastors, leaders, and families—to engage, accompany, and invest in young people. Its core objective is to foster ministerial growth, evangelize effectively, and guide young individuals toward their mission to transform the world through Jesus' love, thereby renewing efforts in youth and young adult ministry.
