From 2017 - 2021 the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine (CCD) promoted Catholic biblical literacy and Catholic biblical interpretation by providing financial assistance for specific projects advancing these goals. Funding for these grants came from the royalties received from the publication of the New American Bible and its derivative works. Grants were awarded semi-annually.

The work of the Confraternity of Christian Doctrine (CCD), a non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation in the District of Columbia, is guided by its mandate to promote the New American Bible and, more generally, Catholic biblical literacy and Catholic biblical interpretation. The CCD works with bishops and diocesan offices, biblical scholars, publishers, USCCB committees, especially Evangelization and Catechesis, Divine Worship, Doctrine, and the Subcommittee on the Review of Scripture Translations, and national and international biblical organizations.
