St. Joseph's Social outreach is rooted in Catholic Social Teaching and the Gospel imperative. We seek to lessen the burden of the poor and highlight Social Justice that the Gospel calls us to.
The Gospel calls us to express loving and compassionate service with particular concern to serve and support poor and vulnerable people through outreach of our faith community. Our focus is on those individuals, children, families, and communities struggling with poverty and the effects of intolerance and racism.
We actively join with others in our work for justice and support the sanctity of human life from conception to natural death and the dignity of the human person.
