Catholic Social Services is a multi-service agency that has been serving families and seniors in central and southern Ohio for 75 years. Catholic Social Services helps working-poor families stabilize and become self-sufficient through case management, training, and emergency assistance. We help low-income seniors age with grace and independence through supportive services and community-impact opportunities. Catholic Social Services has responded to the rapidly growing senior population—serving 50% more seniors in five years through innovation, more effective technology solutions, volunteer engagement and partnership. Similarly, CSS has renewed its focus on helping working poor people who are trying to build better lives for themselves, but who are balancing the complicated and interrelated challenges of poverty. CSS helps clients use their own strengths and leverage the support of the entire community to help reach their goals. In 2020, Catholic Social Services’ 13 programs helped over 25,000 people in our 23-county region, and we partnered with hundreds of corporations, public entities, nonprofits and human service providers to help more CSS clients reach their full potential. Catholic Social Services is accredited by the Council on Accreditation and the Better Business Bureau to illustrate our commitment to best-practice social services and sound business management. We are a research partner with the Wilson Sheehan Lab for Economic Opportunities at the University of Notre Dame because we are committed to evidence-based practice. We are a member agency of Catholic Charities USA and the Human Service Chamber of Franklin County.
