Company Information
Catholic Charities Serving Central Washington provides help and creates hope for thousands of people each year regardless of religious, social or economic backgrounds. Catholic Charities provides a myriad of vital services in communities through its network of agencies: Catholic Family & Child Service, Catholic Charities Housing Services and the St. Vincent Centers.

Although rooted in a Catholic tradition that shapes its core mission of service to all, it exists within a pluralistic community. Perhaps as many as 85% of the agency’s staff is non-Catholic, although that figure is not tracked. Similarly, the vast majority of those being served are not Catholic. Today, those continuing to write the history of the agency include a variety of people of good will, Catholic and non Catholic alike, who are called by many reasons to serve.
