At Catholic Charities of Fairfield County (CCFC), we believe in the power of support and community to change lives. Today, we are proud to share the inspiring success stories of two individuals, Richard Carpenter and Lionel Escalera, whose journeys illustrate the profound impact of our housing programs and case management services.
On September 29, 2024, the Catholic Church will commemorate the 110th World Day of Migrants and Refugees. This special day, marked annually, serves as a reminder to pray, reflect, and take action for those who have been forced to leave their homes in search of safety, dignity, and a better future.
We are seeking a dynamic individual to fill the full-time (35 hours/week), benefits-eligible position of Case Manager-PATH (Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness) with the Homeless Outreach Team. The qualified candidate will provide strengths-based support to individuals who are experiencing homelessness in the greater Danbury area.
Maria Palacios, a DOJ Accredited Representative from Catholic Charities of Fairfield County, will be a key panelist at the upcoming event, “Forced Labor in Our Backyard: Experts Discuss Human Trafficking,” hosted by PEHT. With her extensive experience in immigration services and advocacy, Maria brings a unique perspective on the intersection of human trafficking and vulnerable immigrant populations. She will offer actionable insights on how local communities can support survivors and combat human trafficking. Join us for this vital conversation on Thursday, September 26, 2024, at the New Canaan Library.
