Southwest Florida is filled with diversity and families rich with culture. For many, it is the land of opportunity America promises to be. However, it also needs to be a land of compassion where individuals and families can find help they need to acclimate.
At Catholic Charities of Collier County, we strive to be the helping hand families need to get established in our area or provide temporary assistance. We have programs for people of all ages from all walks of life to provide counseling, career and job services, education and English language instruction, immigration assistance and empowerment.
Our work is also made possible by our partner agencies – the United Way of Collier County and Naples Children and Education Foundation – in part by our volunteers and donors who generously donate time and resources to those in need, and understand that giving is sometimes the greatest gift of all. We’re proud to be recognized by the Council on Accreditation and Charity Navigator for our financial efficiency.
As you browse through our site and programs, we hope our mission speaks to you and you feel compelled to contact us – whether to ask for or offer help.
