The mission of Catholic Charities of Fairfield County, Inc. is to put faith into action by providing Food, Housing, Mental Health, Adoption, Immigration and Family Support Services to the needy and vulnerable of all faiths in Fairfield County. Over the last 100 years, Catholic Charities has grown to be one of the largest private family service agencies in Fairfield County. It has been our privilege and mission to serve the most vulnerable in our communities through programs which alleviate hunger, support the elderly and those with physical and mental health challenges, provide safe care for children and safe haven for the homeless, and deliver fair and just services to immigrants, all without regard to age, race, religion, or ability to pay. We don’t do what we do for Catholics; we do what we do because we are Catholic.
