The Sisters of St. Joseph of St. Hyacinthe is a religious order founded at St. Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada, on 12 September 1877, by the bishop of that diocese, Louis-Zéphirin Moreau, for the Christian instruction of children and the visitation and care of the sick. Civil incorporation was granted 30 June, 1881, and canonical institution 19 March, 1882.
