Programs
Support that stabilizes lives and empowers families
Our social service programs focus on the needs present in each community we serve within South Central and Southeast Kansas.
Our programs focus on four main areas: addressing poverty, domestic violence, homelessness and living with disability.
The overwhelming nature of living in uncertainty can feel like chaos. At Catholic Charities, we help bring order to the chaos, so people can regain their footing and create a plan to move forward, taking the next steps toward lasting stability.
