What services does Catholic Charities offer?
Catholic Charities offers charity, advocacy and mental health services throughout Siouxland. Our doors are open to people of all faiths and backgrounds and our mission is to serve those who are greatest in need. We accept most private insurance, Medicaid, Medicare, and have a sliding-fee-scale based on family income. No one is ever turned away from receiving mental health care due to the inability to pay. We provide individual, couples and family therapy by licensed therapists. We offer FREE mental health assessments for any school-age child through our ‘Pathways’ program. We also connect families in crisis with community resources and provide financial assistance when available.
What is a fun or surprising fact about our company/business?
Our agency received a 100% on its 2019 Mental Health Chapter 24 State Licensure Review. The state rarely gives a 100 rating. We are extremely proud of how well this reflects on our therapists and the way they serve the most vulnerable in our community.
