NAHNS Regional Contacts

The NAHNS uses the same regions as the United States Council of Bishops (USCCB) for separating the United States and it's territories for organizational purposes. Each Archdiocesan, Diocesan, Federation and Association of the Holy Name Society fits into one of these Regions.

Please use the NAHNS Regional Contacts to obtain information on activities of the Holy Name Society in your part of the country or to learn more about the Holy Name Society.
