Catholic Charities of East Tennessee is a social services agency offering nine innovative programs throughout the East Tennessee region. CCETN provides services to anyone with demonstrated need, regardless of race, income or religion; we estimate that fewer than 5 percent of all clients served are Catholic. Our clients include: children who are victims of abuse, neglect, or other endangerment; seniors, including the homebound, the homeless, and victim of elder abuse; women and men preparing for parenting; homeless individuals with HIV/AIDS or with chronic mental health issues; families in hardship, including immigrants, refuges, and rural Appalachian families; and counseling services.
