Our Organization

Catholic Charities Program Sites are located on ancestral, traditional, and contemporary lands of the Dakota people. As we continue to work toward a mission and vision rooted in human dignity, it is important to acknowledge the nations upon whose land we live, learn, and work.

This acknowledgment is just one of the many ways we are committed as an organization to better honoring, supporting, and advocating for indigenous peoples, and to better understand our relationship to this history. There is still much work to do.

For more than 150 years, our organization has served the most vulnerable members of our community. Over time, Catholic Charities has adapted to respond to the needs of our community, focusing our attention where it is needed most. Today, Catholic Charities Twin Cities is a cornerstone of our region’s social service infrastructure, serving over 23,000 of our neighbors each year.

Catholic Charities is a member of Catholic Charities USA, one of the largest private networks of social services providers in the country.

The story begins with you.

Last year, Catholic Charities provided more than 540,000 nights of housing and shelter and served over one million meals to neighbors in our community. Our volunteers contributed more than 109,000 hours of service and nearly 5,000 community members advocated on behalf of those most in need.

Catholic Charities is fortunate to be part of this generous community – this work is only possible with the help of people like you!
