Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas Information

Founded in 1956, Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas provides assistance to those in need by helping them help themselves. Our work strengthens both families and communities in the 21 counties we serve. We offer a wide range of specialized programs and services that span from the beginning to life’s end. We help with immediate survival needs including food, clothing and shelter. More than that, we educate, give guidance and provide resources that will result in long-term change. All services provided are based on need — not religion, race or nationality. Our vision is that our neighbors who are challenged by poverty of mind, body and spirit find the open door of Catholic Charities and are met with help, hospitality and hope. Our purpose is to animate the Gospel of Jesus Christ by putting love into action through specialized programs and services for those in need.
