Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens: who are we?
Catholic Charities Brooklyn and Queens is a nonprofit organization that has been dedicated to helping our neighbors in need with mercy and compassion since 1899. Over the years, we have grown to become one of the largest faith-based providers of affordable housing in the country, and we currently sponsor more than 160 programs and services for individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and abilities.
Our programs and services are designed to address a wide range of needs in the community. We offer support for children and youth, adults and seniors, those who are mentally ill, and the isolated. Our commitment to justice and equality means that we work tirelessly to empower families and individuals to achieve greater self-sufficiency.
We understand that poverty is a complex issue, and we take a holistic approach to addressing it. Our programs and services not only provide essential resources and support, but also help to build stronger, more connected communities. We believe that everyone deserves access to basic needs such as food, shelter, and healthcare, and we strive to ensure that our neighbors in need have access to these resources.
Countless members of our community in Brooklyn and Queens have turned to Catholic Charities for assistance over the years. We are proud to have been able to make a positive impact on so many lives, and we remain committed to serving our neighbors with compassion, dignity, and respect.
