Parish Partners Program

The Parish Partners Program works together with parish staff and volunteers to assist families seeking help through Archdiocese of Washington parishes. Parishes have always been seen as sources of help for all people, working each day to meet their community’s needs.

The Parish Partners Program adds the expertise and services available through Catholic Charities to each parish’s efforts, connecting families and individuals with community and Catholic Charities programs. Parish Partners provides training, networking and support for the development of parish social ministries.
