Advocacy for Poor & Vulnerable

Catholic Charities advocates for people of all ages, genders, faiths, and economic backgrounds, especially the materially poor. Recognizing that all human life has dignity and value, Catholic Charities is a voice for the vulnerable - the elderly, the unborn, the forgotten, anyone in need.

Before legislatures and courts of law, and in local, state and national collaborations, Catholic Charities is committed to responsible advocacy in accordance with its mission.
