Strengthening Families and Resolving Crises In Any Given Year… 3,500 families supported to stay together 4,700 individuals helped with emergency financial assistance 25,700 individuals assisted with critically needed social services 21,200 individuals engaged in counseling 4,700 individuals helped with job training and placement 650 women assisted during unplanned pregnancies Families confronted and confused by crises know they can turn to Catholic Charities for help. A working mom searching for affordable day care; a laid-off father trying to reenter the job market; a young woman coping with an unplanned pregnancy all face a complex maze of emotions and “red tape” to access help. At Catholic Community Services of Rockland, individuals and families receive accurate and prompt information, referrals and advocacy.

Always treated with dignity, individuals and families find long-term solutions to immediate problems through counseling and financial assistance. annual report 2007 11
