Lasallian educational institutions{{Cite web |title=Publications |author= |website=La Salle Worldwide |date= |access-date=16 July 2021 |url= https://www.lasalle.org/en/publicaciones/}} Many examples of the use of 'Lasallian' (not 'La Sallian') as an adjective. are educational institutions affiliated with the De La Salle Brothers, a Catholic religious teaching order founded by French priest Saint Jean-Baptiste de La Salle, who was canonized in 1900 and proclaimed by Pope Pius XII as patron saint of all teachers of youth on May 15, 1950.[http://nominis.cef.fr/contenus/saint/931/Saint-Jean-Baptiste-de-La-Salle.html "Saint Jean-Baptiste de La Salle", nominis.cef] In regard to their educational activities, the Brothers have since 1680 also called themselves "Brothers of the Christian Schools", associated with the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools;{{cite web |url=https://www.lasalle.org/en/lasallian-holiness/st-john-baptist-de-la-salle/ |title=St. Jean-Baptiste de La Salle|website=La Salle Worldwide|access-date=19 January 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140312105557/http://www.lasalle.org/en/who-are-we/ |archive-date=12 March 2014 |url-status=live }} they are often referred to by themselves and others by the shorter term "Christian Brothers",{{cite web |url=http://www.christianbrosretreat.com/property/ |title=Retreat and Conference Center / property |website=Christian Brothers|access-date= 7 October 2016}}{{Cite web |title=About Christian Brothers Center |author= |website=Christian Brothers Center|publisher=De La Salle Christian Brothers |date= |access-date=19 January 2022 |url= https://www.dlcb.org/about-us/}} a name also applied to the unrelated Congregation of Christian Brothers or Irish Christian Brothers,{{cite news |url=http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/news/thousands-raped-in-irelands-christian-brothers-schools-28522897.html |title=Thousands raped in Ireland's Christian Brothers schools|newspaper=Belfast Telegraph |date=20 May 2009|author= |access-date= 7 October 2016}} Typical article referring simply to "Christian Brothers", described in the text as "Ireland's Roman Catholic-run institutions", i.e., not La Salle{{cite web |url=http://www.vocationsireland.com/christian-brothers/ |title=Christian Brothers |website=Vocations Ireland|date=12 May 2009 |access-date= 7 October 2016}} also providers of education, which commonly causes confusion.{{cite web |url=http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n84142280.html |title=Congregation of Christian Brothers|website=US Library of Congress|access-date= 7 October 2016}} "Christian Brothers ... the title is sometimes confusing as it identifies two distinct communities"

In 2021 the International Lasallian Mission Web site stated that the Lasallian order consists of about 3,000 Brothers, who help in running over 1,100 education centers in 80 countries with more than a million students, together with 90,000 teachers and lay associates.{{Cite web |title=The International Lasallian Mission |website=La Salle Worldwide |access-date=11 May 2021 |url=https://www.lasalle.org/en/the-international-lasallian-mission|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210228190211/https://www.lasalle.org/en/the-international-lasallian-mission/|archive-date=28 February 2021|url-status=live}}

Short "one-line" prayers are recited in Lasallian educational institutions during the school day, Typical wordings of some are:{{cite web |url=https://www.saintmaryschs.org/apps/pages/index.jsp?uREC_ID=2052647&type=d&pREC_ID=2120163|url-status=live|title=Lasallian Prayer |website=Saint Mary's College High School|access-date=19 January 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180914203520/http://www.saintmaryschs.org/about/history-tradition-heritage/lasallian-prayer/|archive-date=14 September 2018|quote=These short prayers are familiar to Lasallians throughout the world ... and are recited often during the school day.}}

The US-based La Salle International Foundation, which supports global educational and other networks of the De La Salle Brothers, say on their Web site that they sponsor educational projects and support schools in 80 countries; and that they give special attention to youth at risk, including those "educationally excluded, street children, orphans, victims of child abuse, drug addicts, disabled youth, individuals with mental illness, migrant and refugee youth, HIV+ and AIDS children, child victims of war, juvenile offenders, child laborers, victims of child trafficking, ethnic minorities, disadvantaged girls, and impoverished children".{{Cite web |title=See "About Us", "What We Do", and their subpages|author= |website=La Salle International Foundation |date= |access-date=22 April 2022 |url= https://www.lasalleinternational.org/}}

Sexual abuse cases

{{Main|De La Salle Brothers#Child sexual abuse}}

There have been a number of cases of institutional sexual and physical abuse of children, many over a period of several decades, in Lasallian educational institutions in several countries. Some branches of the De La Salle Brothers admitted to these cases, and issued apologies publicly and to victims. The Northern Ireland Historical Institutional Abuse Inquiry in its report on physical and sexual abuse at the De La Salle Boys' Home at Rubane House considered "the extent and frequency of the abuse was such that it was systemic" and that "the [La Salle] Order's failings to properly investigate allegations of sexual abuse and to properly report them to relevant authorities and its failure to take proper steps to protect children from further sexual abuse" amounted to "a systemic failure to take appropriate steps to ensure the investigation and prosecution of criminal offences involving abuse".

On 11 March 2022 ministers from the five main political parties in Northern Ireland and six abusing institutions made statements of apology in the Northern Ireland Assembly.{{Cite news |title=Abuse survivors hear Stormont public apology |last1=McCormack |first1=Jayne |last2=Andrews |first2=Chris |work=BBC News |date=11 March 2022 |url= https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-60676276}}

The six institutions that apologised for carrying out abuse were De La Salle Brothers, represented by Br Francis Manning; the Sisters of Nazareth, represented bySr Cornelia Walsh; the Sisters of St Louis represented by Sr Uainin Clarke; theGood Shepherd Sisters, represented by Sr Cait O'Leary; Barnardo's in Northern Ireland, represented by Michele Janes; and Irish Church Missions, represented by Rev Mark Jones. In live reporting after the apology, BBC News reported that Jon McCourt from Survivors North West said "If what happened today was the best that the church could offer by way of an apology they failed miserably. There was no emotion, there was no ownership. ... I don't believe that the church and institutions atoned today." He called on the intuitions to "do the right thing" and contribute to the redress fund for survivors, saying that institutions have done similar for people in Scotland.{{Cite news |title=As it happened: Official apology over abuse (with criticism by survivors)| last1 = Connolly | first1 = Gráinne| last2 = Glynn | first2 = Niall| last3 = McCauley | first3 = Ciaran|website=BBC News |date=11 March 2022 |url= https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/uk-northern-ireland-60665887 }}{{rp|15:11}} McCourt praised the government ministers' apologies; they had "sat and thought out and listened to what it was we said.", but said that the institutions had failed to do this, leading to some victims having to leave the room while they were speaking, "compound[ing] the hurt."{{rp|15:22}} Others angry at the institutions' apologies included Caroline Farry, who attended St Joseph's Training School in Middletown from 1978 to 1981, overseen by nuns from the Sisters of St Louis,{{rp|15:04}} Pádraigín Drinan from Survivors of Abuse,{{rp|14:55}} and Alice Harper, whose brother, a victim of the De La Salle Brothers, had since died.{{rp|14:55}} Peter Murdock, from campaign group Savia, was at Nazareth Lodge Orphanage with his brother (who had recently died); he likened the institution to an "SS camp". He said "It's shocking to hear a nun from the institution apologising ... it comes 30 years too late ... people need to realise that it has to come from the heart. They say it came from the heart but why did they not apologise 30 years ago?"{{rp|14:34}}
