About
Us
Catholic
Charities is a leading provider of Senior Services,
Case Management & Behavioral Health Programs, Women's Children's Services, and
Life Skills/Transitional Services throughout the Roman Catholic Diocese of Bridgeport.
It is the largest private family service agency in the region; in addition to
providing direct services such as food and shelter housing, it also offers a wide
range of mental health programs that help empower people to live more independently
and overcome problems in their lives.
Without
the support of the Diocese of Bridgeport, Catholic Charities could not reach out
with its family and community services. In addition to providing direct revenue,
the commitment of the diocese enables Catholic Charities to build other sources
of support. For every dollar contributed by the diocese, Catholic Charities is
able to leverage $10 in additional public and private funding support.
