We will respect and affirm the autonomy of each organization/entity with whom we are in relationship.
CCI affirms clients have the right to self-actualization and to reach their potential as beings created in the image and likeness of God.

Catholic Charities affirms that love – caritas – will be the chief identifying characteristic and element of our work and life.
"Catholic Charities has been the best help that I have had here. After having so many letdowns, they have helped immensely. Now apart from seeing my daughters happy, I have a happiness that is very, very important which is my work permit, social security, and the hope that I will be able to go back and see my mother."
"Working with Cathleen was on of the biggest blessings of my life. I have a lot more work to do, but she brought me to an incredible place I didn't know was possible."
"I'm actually really thankful I even discovered CCI and the huge help they offer. It wasn't as scary knowing someone could actually really help and not take advantage of someone trying to better themselves for a brighter future."
" ... the biggest grace is being able to own my story and my suffering, it's real, it's painful, but I don't have to be stuck here. CCI brought me the virtue of hope."
