Mission 
Catholic Charities is an outreach ministry of the Archdiocese of Atlanta rooted in the Gospel, serving people of all backgrounds and religions, with special concern for those most in need and most vulnerable.  As an agent of compassion and hope, Catholic Charities calls on all people to embrace charity and justice.

Philosophy of Service
In keeping with Catholic social teaching and Judaeo Christian principles, Catholic Charities Atlanta opens its doors to the most vulnerable and most in need from all walks of life. Regardless of race, creed, national origin, socio-economic status or educational background, empowering them to utilize their strengths and resources so as to meet the needs of their families and contribute to their community is a primary goal in social services today. In serving individuals and families, it will reach out with compassion and love.

Its Future
Catholic Charities Atlanta will continue to offer the professional, highly specialized services which are the cornerstones of our agency. It plans to offer more services associated with our current regional centers and add more centers as it reaches further into the other parts of the Archdiocese.

In addition to expanding its efforts as service provider, it will also act as convener, facilitator and trainer through exciting new partnerships with the parishes, the community of faith, the business community, other non-profits, and those of good will, from central to north Georgia. Catholic Charities Atlanta will play a vital role in these partnerships by educating, equipping, and empowering others to work together more closely as one human family. Once new projects begin, Catholic Charities Atlanta can manage them or move on to initiate projects in other areas of need.
