For many older adults, getting to and from medical appointments can be a challenge. Through our Outpatient Transportation Program, caring volunteers help bridge that gap, providing reliable rides and meaningful companionship along the way.

Whether it’s transportation to an important procedure or a stop at the pharmacy, our volunteers ensure seniors arrive with comfort, dignity, and peace of mind.

Through these simple but powerful acts of kindness, we are making a lasting difference in the health, independence, and well being of seniors throughout our community. This program is made possible by generous donors and volunteers, If you’d like to be part of it, visit helpcreatehope.org/outpatient-transportation to learn more.

Catholic Charities Indianapolis is proud to partner with Indiana Health Centers to bring their Mobile Health Unit directly to those we serve at both the Crisis Office and Holy Family Shelter this June and July.

This new collaboration helps individuals and families experiencing hardship access high-quality medical care in a place they already know and trust, removing barriers like transportation and scheduling challenges.

On designated dates, clients can receive a wide range of services, including:
• Preventive and sick care visits
• Chronic disease management
• Laboratory testing
• Case management support
• Referrals for specialized care

We are grateful for this partnership and excited about the impact it will have. Together, we are building a healthier, more compassionate community.

June is PTSD Awareness Month. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affects many individuals who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event. These experiences can leave lasting emotional and psychological impacts that are often invisible to others.

At Catholic Charities Indianapolis, we recognize the courage it takes to seek help and the importance of compassion, understanding, and support. No one should have to navigate trauma alone. This month, we invite you to learn more, reduce stigma, and stand in solidarity with those living with PTSD.

As we reflect on the school year, we want to say thank you to our incredible School Social Work team.

Through listening, advocating, and supporting students and their families out school social workers made a lasting impact in Catholic school classrooms and communities across Indianapolis. Their compassion helped students navigate challenges, build resilience, and feel seen and supported, often at moments when it mattered most.

We are deeply grateful for the heart, dedication, and hope they bring to this work every day.

This important work is possible through the generosity of our community. If you’d like to support students and their families, your donation will help provide care where it’s needed most.

At Holy Family Shelter, we believe no child should miss out on adventure, friendship, and the joy of a carefree summer. For the children we serve, many of whom have experienced frequent instability, summer camp can be life changing and uplifting.

Summer camp offers more than fun; it provides stability, builds confidence, offers nutritious meals, promotes creative expression, and supports academic learning to help prevent the “summer slide.” It’s a chance for children to feel safe, included, and free to simply enjoy being kids.

You can help make this possible. Click the link to give today: https://bit.ly/HFSsummercamp

Your support helps create lasting memories and meaningful moments for children.

Today, Catholic Charities Indianapolis takes a moment to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. We are grateful for their sacrifice and hold their families and loved ones in our prayers.

As people of faith, we ask God to grant eternal rest to the fallen, comfort to those who mourn, and wisdom and peace to our nation. May we honor their legacy by striving for justice, compassion, and the dignity of every person.

As we recognize Mental Health Awareness Month, we remember that healing is possible, even after deep trauma. Through our Counseling Program, Jane found hope after struggling for years with anxiety, depression, and unhealthy relationships. She learned to recognize her own God given dignity and worth. Today, she is building a healthy, loving future grounded in compassion, trust, and resilience. Catholic Charities Indianapolis is honored to walk alongside individuals like Jane, offering care, support, and hope when it is needed most.

At A Caring Place, older adults with cognitive impairments are provided with a warm and supportive environment where they can stay engaged throughout the day. Each day is filled with meaningful activities like music, arts and crafts, games, and cognitive exercises that promote connection and well being.

One special highlight is the intergenerational partnership with a preschool class in the same facility. Through shared games, creativity, and laughter, participants and children build genuine connections that bring joy, purpose, and emotional enrichment to everyone involved.

St. Elizabeth / Coleman Pregnancy & Adoption Services offers a wide range of services, and one of the most impactful is the International Adoption Program, which is a powerful testament to love that knows no borders. While international adoption can be a long, complex, and emotional journey, our dedicated team is committed to guiding families through every step of their journey.

Recently, they assisted a family in welcoming their daughter home from India. After applying in 2022 and being matched in 2023, the family thoughtfully reviewed her medical and social history and joyfully decided to move forward, prepared to support her ongoing medical needs. In 2025, their journey was complete and the adoption was finalized.

Today, their daughter is thriving, surrounded by love, care, and the promise of a bright future.
