The Legal Resource Center for Religious (LRCR) was established as the legal office by the Conference of Major Superiors of Men and the Leadership Conference of Women Religious in the 1990s and later was also sponsored by NATRI. The office eventually became a non-profit corporation. It aided religious Institutes in civil and canon law matters. It published a legal bulletin for leaders and finance officers. In 2009 LRCR was renamed The Resource Center for Religious Institutes and NATRI merged into that entity. The Resource Center for Religious Institutes (RCRI) continues the mission of LRCR and NATRI.
