Perspective on Health Equity
Catholic Charities focuses on bringing opportunity, education and guidance to the Culture of Health in Jersey City. We aim to provide shelter, access to healthier food choices, a reduction in recidivism, stable family units and a welcoming, knowledgeable resource for those in need. Catholic Charities encourages clients to connect with our multiple service offerings, starting with the most basic needs and moving along the continuum to build a self-sustaining, independent life.
