Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington Headquarters

The Montgomery County Family center serves anyone in need living in Montgomery County. As a gateway to the many programs and services of Catholic Charities. Our staff guides families through crisis to stability. We focus on partnering with other organizations in the community to provide complete care to all who seek our help.

Volunteer Opportunities include:

Monthly Fresh Produce Mobile Market: Sign up here to help distribute fresh produce to 100s of people on the 1st Monday of the month February - November.  If you'd like to be a volunteer leader for the Monthly Fresh Produce Mobile Market, apply here.

The goal of the Welcome Home Reentry Program is to help people returning to the community from incarceration to find and follow a path to a new life and avoid recidivism. We do this by creating a support network for each person who wants it beginning with a volunteer mentor who provides support and encouragement and holds up a vision for a better life. Together the returning citizen and mentor overcome big and small obstacles on route to finding a job, a safe place to live, and a community of support.

Special Request: Returned citizens who qualify are encouraged to become mentors: your experience is very valuable. You must have been cleared of all obligations to the authorities for at least 3 years, 3 months and 3 days. Research shows that successful reentry for at least this period of time provides the most valuable experience and witness to newly returned persons.
