Keep Calm and Serve On

On April 5, we hosted the 3rd Annual Catholic Charities High School Day of Service, involving 275 students from local Catholic high schools. They packaged over 5,880 breaksfasts for Cup of Joe, cleaned and landscaped the property of the 801 East Men's Shelter, and learned about our programs such as the Youth Transitional Program.

Staff Attorney Plays Role in Passing Bill
Michelle Mendez, senior attorney with Catholic Charities Immigration Legal Services (ILS), played a key role in passing a bill into Maryland law that extends jurisdiction for guardianship and custody proceedings to Special Immigrant Juvenile Staus (SIJI) eligible individuals over 18 but not yet 21. This puts jurisdiction on par with the Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) definition of a "child".

•      SHARE was one of two programs at Catholic Charities to receive a Community Impact Fund Grant from the United Way.  The $ 12,000 grant, which is less than the $ 22,000 requested, will be used to develop a pilot program that promotes SHARE in two Prince Georges County high schools
