Catholic Charities Corporation Administrative Offices:
7911 Detroit AvenueWe welcome refugees, asylees, and immigrants from around the world who have been forced to flee their homes in fear of persecution. We “welcome the stranger” by providing services that help individuals adapt and thrive to life in America.
Since 1948, Catholic Charities Migration & Refugee Services has been working to resettle refugees throughout Northeast Ohio.
“We call upon all people of goodwill, to welcome the newcomers in their neighborhoods and schools, in their places of work and worship, with heartfelt hospitality, openness, and eagerness both to help and to learn from our brothers and sisters of whatever religion, ethnicity, or background.” —Welcoming the Stranger Among Us: Unity in Diversity, A Statement of the U.S. Catholic Bishops
