Administration

Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Palm Beach is a member of Catholic Charities USA. In 2001, Catholic Charities was accredited through the Council on Accreditation, a national organization which assures that family service programs meet the highest standards of practice. In 2005 Catholic Charities was re-accredited. Catholic Charities receives funding from a number of sources including the annual Diocesan Services Appeal, many area United Way agencies, several county Children’s Services Councils, and some state/federal grants.

Through the years, Catholic Charities has developed a variety of programs and services in response to specific needs of populations in local communities. Some of these services include counseling, immigration and refugee services, housing and guardianship for seniors, homes for developmentally disabled, transitional housing for homeless families, after-school programs. A complete list of our program services and pertinent information can be found on the pages that follow. All of our services are available to eligible clients regardless of religious affiliation or ethnic origin. Some of our services are available at no cost; many others are offered on a sliding fee scale.

The Board and staff of Catholic Charities are committed to the mission of the agency and are working together to continue to provide services that address community needs.
