Note: The 5th edition of the "Ethical and Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services" was developed by the Committee on Doctrine of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops and approved as the national code by the full body of the USCCB at its November 2009 General Meeting. In accord with the decree issued by Bishop Joseph Galante on March 25, 2010, it also is particular law for the Diocese of Camden. For the text of the directives in PDF format, click here .
HEALTH SERVICES DIVISION
Rooted in the Gospel and in the Catholic social teaching, we seek to transform the lives of people in need, with a special emphasis on reaching out to people and groups who are not fully part of the communities of South Jersey because they are poor and vulnerable. Through innovative, caring social services and because of our high standards and expectations, we seek to provide appropriate service to all who ask for our assistance.
Our search for change and transformation leads us to create innovative partnerships with Catholic parishes and service organization's, other social service agencies, federal, state and the local governments and all people of good will.
Our genuine concern for justice means that we advocate for people and communities. As wise stewards of the resources we employ, funders, donors and volunteers can entrust their time, treasure and talents with confidence and faith.
