On Thursday, May 8, 2025, Catholic Charities USA President and CEO Kerry Alys Robinson released the following statement congratulating Pope Leo XIV, the first American pope:
Today we join with the global Catholic Church and people of good will throughout the United States and around the world in congratulating and praying for Pope Leo XIV as he begins his papacy. Guided by the Holy Spirit, the College of Cardinals has chosen a pontiff who, true to his roots as a missionary priest, will proclaim the resurrection and spread the good news of the Gospels far and wide. In the weeks, months, and years to come, we look forward to drawing inspiration in a special way from the first American pope as the 168 Catholic Charities agencies across the United States fulfill their vital mission to come to the aid of our most vulnerable sisters and brothers in every corner of this country.
