Community Engagement
Parish
Our goal is to partner and collaborate with parishes in order that we can work together in ways that will support the mission of both Catholic Charities and the individual parish. Catholic Charities of Northeast Kansas is dedicated to partnering with parishes in order to care for more people in need, have a stronger voice advocating for justice, and provide more and a greater variety of opportunities for the faithful to grow in love with God and neighbor.
