Catholic Charities USA

Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA) is a national membership organization representing a network of over 160 local Catholic Charities agencies across the United States. Founded in 1910, the organization serves as the domestic charitable arm of the Catholic Church, focusing on poverty reduction and social justice. CCUSA provides a broad spectrum of services including food security, affordable housing, disaster relief, and immigration assistance. While not a life sciences or biotechnology company, the organization is a significant provider of community-based healthcare services, including behavioral health and addiction recovery programs. The organization advocates for policy changes at the federal level to support vulnerable populations and improve the social determinants of health. Through its member agencies, CCUSA operates as one of the largest social safety net providers in the country, reaching millions of individuals annually.
