Notes

Caritas envisions a community where there is respect for all individuals, hope for those experiencing poverty and opportunities for self reliance.

Caritas was founded in 1964 by Monsignor Richard McCabe as a safety net for the community's working poor.

Caritas is an integral part of the community's human services network and Travis County's largest non-governmental source of assistance.
