Since 1945...
Since 1945, Catholic Social Services (CSS) has been a source of compassion, dignity, and hope for those Christ calls us to serve throughout our community. Serving over 10,000 individuals annually, our mission is supported by dedicated volunteers who help seniors find connection, guide families towards a brighter future, and assist persons with disabilities find new freedom. Rooted in the belief that every person reflects the image of God, we journey together as neighbors, empowering individuals to shape their own futures with our unwavering support.
Aging with Independence & Dignity
Seniors possess a lifetime of wisdom, but sadly, neglect and loneliness often accompany what should be their golden years. At Catholic Social Services, we see the person behind the circumstances. We’re here to support and advocate for them, providing services that honor their dignity, recognize their worth, and help them stay independent. And all of this happens within a community that truly appreciates their contributions.
Equipping Families to Thrive
At Catholic Social Services, our mission is all about making a difference and changing lives for the better. We imagine a world where everyone in need can reach their full potential, living with dignity, hope, and purpose. We’re here to light up paths in tough times and uplift spirits, ensuring that needs like food, legal guidance, or community integration are always met. Our commitment is grounded in a belief that this is God’s work, and we are called to participate together as neighbors to empower individuals to overcome obstacles and become self-reliant. When we see everyone as made in the image and likeness of God, we honor the inherent dignity they possess. Welcoming people of all beliefs and backgrounds, we’re spreading life and light in every corner of our community, giving each person we serve the chance to rise above their circumstances and achieve independence.
