Our Mission

Our mission is to provide our neighbors in the South Plains a path to well-being through support and empowerment.

We serve all people, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity, gender, or orientation. Our focus is on the vulnerable and in-need in our community and our goal is to transition families and individuals from crisis to stability and self-sufficiency

Our mission is rooted in the gospel:

"Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? When did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? When did we see you ill or in prison, and visit you?"
 
"Amen, I say to you, whatever you did for one of these least brothers of mine, you did for me."

We serve 30 counties around the South Plains: Lubbock, Castro, Crosby, Garza, Hale, Hardeman, Haskell, Wilbarger, Bailey, Baylor, Briscoe, Childress, Cochran, Cottle, Dickens, Floyd, Foard, Hockley, Kent, King, Knox, Lamb, Lynn, Motley, Parmer, Stonewall, Swisher, Terry, Throckmorton, and Yoakum.
 

Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Statement:

Catholic Charities upholds the dignity of every human person.  The entire Catholic Charities ministry has a responsibility to advocate for just policy positions and to share our experience of serving all those in need. Our Catholic faith calls us to serve the most vulnerable and to advocate for justice in social services.
