WHO WE ARE
About CARITAS
At CARITAS, we offer individuals struggling with addiction, housing insecurity, and/or unemployment an opportunity to heal and rebuild. We create pathways to stability and self-sufficiency by providing people with three key tools: time, resources, and community. But, this work isn’t linear – individuals show up with a variety of needs, and we’re ready to meet them wherever they are on their journey.
