As of July 1, 2010, the Diocese of Davenport reestablished a local Catholic Charities office.  Our operation  includes:

• Disaster Preparation and Responses: Assist parishes in disaster planning and work with county or community disaster recovery organization in time of disaster to facilitate recovery.

• Immigration Services: Provides assistance in navigating the immigration process to families and outreach to communities for immigration information and assistance.

• Jail/Prison Ministry and Parish Health Ministry: Support people involved in these ministries and seek to involve more people and parishes in them.

Catholic Charities is a compliment to the rich tradition of social justice that continues within the diocese.

Thank you to the Riverboat Development Authority:

Lawlogix Immigration Case Management Software for Immigration Office operations was provided by a generous grant from the  Riverboat Development Authority Mary Ellen Chamberlin, President.
