Claretian Publications publishes print and digital content to help audiences in the United States and Canada enter into educated conversations and respond compassionately to the challenges of our time. Today Claretian Publications is one of the country’s most respected national religious periodical publishers and is a leader in providing bilingual resources for Hispanic religious communities in the United States.
Claretian Publications follows in the footsteps of its founder, St. Anthony Claret, a prolific writer and publisher. It began in 1935 with the magazine The Voice of St. Jude, which in 1963 became U.S. Catholic magazine. Today U.S. Catholic is an award-winning religious general interest magazine, and its digital and social media platforms reach hundreds of thousands of readers every month.
Claretian Publications also collaborates in publishing both original books and translated works. Even after 90 years, it still aspires to be a courageous, forward-thinking forum for discussion among a broad range of voices.
