The Congregation of the Priests of the Sacred Heart of Jesus (Latin: Congregatio Sacerdotum a Sacro Corde Iesu), also called the Dehonians, is a Catholic clerical religious congregation of Pontifical Right for men in the Catholic Church founded in northern France in Saint-Quentin, Aisne, Picardy, by Léon Dehon in 1878.^[2]

The congregation is present in over 40 countries on five continents (Europe, Africa, North and South America and Asia). It is headquartered in Rome. Carlos Luis Suarez Codorniú is the current superior general. In the United States, it is based in Hales Corners, Wisconsin. There it also operates the Sacred Heart School of Theology, the largest seminary in the United States for men over the age of 30 who are preparing for the priesthood.

Among other facilities, the Institute has owned and operated St. Joseph's Indian School in Chamberlain, South Dakota, since 1927. This is an off-reservation boarding school for grades K-8 that serves largely Lakota students.
