Our Parish-Based Ministries serve all persons with disabilities. We offer programs for persons with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities, and for those who are Deaf, Blind and/or Mentally Ill.

These ministries not only advocate for individual rights, but they also offer leadership opportunities within the areas of pastoral care, service, liturgy and education.


Religious Education for Special Needs

In partnership with St. Augustine Parish in Cleveland's Tremont neighborhood, Catholic Charities Parish-Based Ministries offers a religious education program for children with learning challenges. Known as the Beatitudes Program, this educational course helps prepare children for the sacraments. Instruction is tailored to each individual and their strengths in order to help them express their love of God and come to a better understanding of their faith.

Parish-Based Ministries also assists families and other religious education programs throughout the Cleveland Diocese, providing resources and tools to help teach children with developmental disabilities and learning challenges.


Ministries to Persons who are Blind, Deaf or Living with Mental Illness
