Life & Home Management Educational Workshop

Our emphasis is on "guiding" families through their housing emergency needs and concerns. 

The Life and Home Management Course is designed to teach the participants how to better manage their lives to prevent potential eviction and homelessness.  Instead of teaching them how to survive after emergencies, we teach them how to prepare for and manage to prevent them.

Life and Home Management Courses are scheduled at regular intervals. For more information contact:

Stories of Hope

Caring for Our Elders

Catholic Charities helps adults retain dignity and independence.

Jim was suffering from dementia. He’d begun wandering away from home at night, and his 70-year-old nephew was having to go out at all hours to find him and bring him back home. He wasn’t bathing or eating regularly, and his clothes were hanging off of him like curtains.

Catholic Charities’ Adult Advocacy Services interviewed Jim in his home and decided an emergency guardianship should be sought. He was eventually placed in a nursing facility near his home, which he came to enjoy very much.
