We are dedicated to leading the way in meeting the emergency needs of the poor and vulnerable. As Catholics, we respect the dignity of each unique person so that our clients feel hope and compassion as they create a life that works. 

Advancing Hope

We come together as one community and share one common goal--to compassionately deliver sustainable, professional, and person- and family-centered care. Joining together, we create lives that work and hope for all. 

Advancing the experience

We are committed to delivering consistent, compassionate, professional programs and services to our clients by giving them the tools they need to thrive, supporting then through the challenges they face, and instilling hope and confidence for a life that works. Our vision of sustainability includes the development of forward-thinking programs and services with proven success in the areas of community navigation, mental health, life skills, spiritual growth, job training, and employment opportunities. 

Life and Work services 

Creating a life that works may begin with receiving emergency assistance to prevent homelessness. Form there, families can build life skills including goal setting, budgeting, and developing social networks. Working toward permanent, sustainable employment is the final step on achieving self-sustainability. Catholic Charities helps clients navigate their life plans. 

Immigration Legal Services 

Catholic Charities provides legal assistance with citizenship documentation acquisition and renewals, resources, and support to immigrants and refugees who seek to build a new life. Providing quality immigration assistance keeps families together and strengthens the community.

Counseling 

Licensed therapists help our clients work through personal struggles, difficult life transitions, relationship issues and obstacles to achieving personal potential. Mental health therapy is offered on an outpatient basis to individuals, couples and families. Appointments can be made in one of our three convenient locations (Evansville, Jasper, and Washington) in southwestern Indiana. 

Advancing Each Other 

We all succeed when we support each other and help one another live productive lives. Together, we create a connectedness and supportive network that strengthens our community. Our common goal of advancing hope for all individuals empowers each one of us and gives us a sense of purpose, belonging and spiritual growth. We come together as clients, donors, volunteers, employees, local agencies, business leaders, Southwestern Indiana, and the Diocese of Evansville
