About Catholic Charities
Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington, located in District Heights, Maryland, is the most comprehensive social services provider in the Washington metropolitan area. Since 1929, the organization has served anyone in need regardless of race, religion, orientation, or status, offering assistance through eight areas of care including food services, housing and shelter, health care and mental health services, job training and employment, and support for families, children, immigrants, and refugees. Motivated by the gospel message of Jesus Christ and guided by Catholic social teaching, Catholic Charities empowers individuals and families to move from crisis toward stability and growth. The agency operates with less than one percent of its funding from the archdiocese, allowing it to serve autonomously across 29 locations in Washington, D.C., and five surrounding Maryland counties.
