Mission Statement

The ADESTE (Archdiocesan Elementary School Time Enrichment) program offers low-cost before-and-after school care at 32 locations in Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and Ventura counties.

Inspired by our shared vision of Christ’s Kingdom, Catholic Charities is firmly committed to enhancing the social mission of the Church through:

Human Services
Providing a comprehensive range of human services to meet the needs of the poor and disadvantaged;

Empowerment
Assisting individuals, through skills development, to become more self-sufficient;

Positive Social Change
Effecting social change through education, advocacy and collaborative strategies;

Social Justice
Promoting fair, equitable and humane treatment in social services which leads to more self-determination, self sufficiency and basic human dignity.

Our Mission reflects and affirms the cultural diversity of the entire human family in the Archdiocese and throughout the communities we serve.
