Program areas at Catholic Social Services of the Diocese of Columbus
Senior Services: maintaining independence increases the quality of life and well-being for seniors. Our various programs help seniors work through challenges common to their season of life, such as connecting them to resources, navigating new and rapidly changing technology, avoiding and overcoming senior abuse, senior targeted scams, staying in their home, as well as realities of a fixed income, and the health risks of loneliness.
Poverty reduction: for most, the challenges of poverty are complicated requiring assistance tailored to the individual's needs. Catholic Social Services provides other Services to support: veterans and persons with disabilities with non-emergency medical transportation; individuals with cognitive disabilities with financial management Services; nontraditional college students trying to remain in school; and spanish speaking entrepreneurs who bring jobs and cultural diversity to our community.
Family Services: a strong community is built on family. We address our clients' immediate, often crisis needs, for food, clothing, parenting and child resources, and shelter, while simultaneously helping them improve their mental health and overcome barriers to long-term stability, well-being, and income.
