Catholic Charities Jackson, MS Charity Profile

The mission of Catholic Charities is to be a visible sign of Christ’s love by helping those who are unable to help themselves; the poor and vulnerable, especially children, women, and families.

In the 1991 document, Putting children and Families First the Catholic Bishops of the United States Stated:

The biblical call to speak for those who cannot speak for themselves and to make Christian love real and active has taken explicit shape over the last century in the traditional social teaching of the church. This tradition and its key principles ...include the life and dignity of the human person, human rights and responsibilities, the call to family and community, the dignity of work, the option for the poor and vulnerable.

Catholic Charities embraces this statement and calls its leadership and staff to bring God's promise of life and its fullness to all people, rich or poor, young or old, male or female, born or unborn, regardless of race or color.The mission of Catholic Charities is multifaceted: direct services, advocacy, and public consciousness raising.
