Tracing its roots to 1903, Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Newark (CCAN) is the non-sectarian, not-for-profit social service corporation of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Newark, New Jersey. The agency’s mission statement is as follows: Catholic Charities as a ministry of the Archdiocese of Newark participates in the Church’s social mission by recognizing the inherent dignity and worth of all people and responding with sincere Christian compassion to the corporeal needs of the poor and marginalized.
