Thank you to everyone who applied to serve on CREW this year; we are blessed year-after-year to have wonderful people apply who exhibit strong faith and leadership at their home, parish and school communities! While the application is closed for this year, please continue to follow us on social media for DCYC updates including CREW updates for next year--applications typically open in late August.

The mission of the Diocesan Catholic Youth Conference (DCYC) is to provide an opportunity for youth to encounter Christ through liturgy, sacraments and engaging presentations which reflect the diverse needs of the youth of the Austin diocese.

In 2019, we are excited to celebrate 61 years of faith and vitality that our young people bring to the Diocese of Austin. We hope that you can join us Feb. 1-3 for this exciting opportunity!
