Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte

Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte serves the poor and vulnerable regardless of race, ethnicity, or religion, with offices in Charlotte, Winston-Salem, Asheville, Greensboro, and Murphy.  The agency provides a variety of services: adoption and pregnancy support, counseling, family outreach, refugee resettlement, citizenship services, food pantries, economic development, disaster relief, respect life, social concerns education and advocacy.  The mission of Catholic Charities Diocese of Charlotte is to strengthen families, build communities, and reduce poverty.

Catholic Charities is accredited by the Council on Accreditation (www.coastandards.org)
and The Hague Convention on Protection of Children and Co-operation in Respect of Intercountry Adoptions (www.hcch.net). We are a member of Catholic Charities USA (www.catholiccharitiesusa.org).

Our history began over 60 years ago when the Bishop of the Catholic Diocese of Raleigh (which then covered the entire state) created a Charlotte-based branch of The Bureau of Catholic Charities. Our vast service area now extends through 46 counties, from Rockingham county in the north to Richmond county in the south and Cherokee county in the west. We seek opportunities to expand outreach to our neighbors in need through our physical locations in Asheville, Charlotte, Greensboro, Murphy, and Winston-Salem and through parish-based program offerings across the Diocese of Charlotte.
