Catholic Charities

Catholic Charities’ Lawrence Emergency Assistance Center (EAC) is available to low-income individuals and families who need food, clothing, and short-term utility or housing assistance. The EAC provides a wide variety of services to the community including: The Friendly Visitors Program for homebound individuals, A client choice food pantry, clothing closet, VITA tax preparation and case management. In addition, the EAC offers monthly classes to the community such as cooking classes and Your Money, Your Goals financial education, often collaborating with other local agencies. The EAC goes beyond meeting immediate needs; an on-site case manager works to identify solutions and resources that will lead to long-term stability. St. Johns parish provides generous support, making a monthly financial contribution for food, personal care and utilities. There are food drives throughout the year and parishioners provide holiday assistance with Easter, Thanksgiving and Christmas. Catholic Charities welcomes donations of time, clothing, food or money year round to aid in provision of goods and services to the Lawrence community.
All are welcome here.
