More about Catholic Charities Family and Community Services

The organization is a nonprofit civic and social-services group headquartered here since 1917. As an RN you provide direct care, health assessments, medication oversight, chronic-condition monitoring, and care coordination for people dealing with addiction, mental illness, aging, HIV, poverty, developmental disability, and immigration needs—full-time and on-site. A typical day can start in the morning and wind down around 4–5 p.m. Staff talk about flexible arrangements and family-friendly hours, though loads can pick up around campaigns. The culture is often described as collaborative and mission-focused, with room to learn and feel appreciated for the work. Growth paths are thinner than some nurses want, and pay competitiveness comes up as a concern in reviews. If steady community impact and daytime residential work matter more to you than a steep ladder or top-market wages, this is a setting worth a close look.

Collaborative, mission-focused culture oriented toward community impact across housing, addiction, aging, mental health, HIV, poverty, developmental disability, and immigration support.
