Caritas Family Solutions is a nonprofit social services agency that works to meet the physical, social, and emotional needs of vulnerable people in Southern Illinois, from before birth through the golden years. We believe our community is strengthened when every person in it has a loving home and can create healthy relationships.

What We Do

• We are a hands-on organization that provides real, in-person care and services to people who need to get out of an unhealthy situation and into a healing environment.
• We match babies and children to parents wanting to adopt. We provide pregnancy care to women who choose adoption.
• We care for children the state removes from abusive homes and place them with our personally-selected and vetted foster parents. If a child has experienced too much trauma to be successful in foster care, we care for them personally at St. John Bosco Children’s Center.
• When families struggle and are on the edge of falling apart, we work to heal them, keeping their children in the home.
• We help low-income seniors find assisted living where they can enjoy community.
• We help developmentally disabled adults live with dignity and independence in homes within our communities.
