Catholic Charities

The Mission of Catholic Charities
is to provide service to people in need, to advocate for justice in social structures, and to call the entire church and other people of goodwill to do the same.

OUR VISION
Catholic Charities USA was founded over a century ago by men and women who believed that the collective efforts of the church to faithfully serve people in need could change the course of poverty in our nation.

At Catholic Charities we help people, regardless of their faith, who are struggling with poverty and other complex issues. At CCUSA, our advocacy and disaster relief programs — and our support of member agencies in our network — is making tangible progress toward providing help and hope to our neighbors across the country.

Our collective efforts focus on a set of strategic priorities that make a difference in the lives of people in need.
