A CARING ARM OF THE CHURCH
We seek to “keep hope alive” when there seems like there is often little hope
Catholic Family Support Services is the Social Service agency for the Diocese of Hamilton. Our services are home-based and provide the support necessary for people to make fundamental changes to their lives. The ultimate goal is to empower families and individuals to regain control of their own lives. Our commitment is not to foster dependency but independence and confidence. It is not about a “hand-out” but a “hand-up”. We welcome people whatever their beliefs.

Our Board members are appointed by the Bishop of Hamilton. Board members are chosen for their expertise across the range of skills required as Board members. We are very fortunate to have such a good Board.

We offer a range of services for families and individuals. In Hamilton we receive MSD contracts to provide our services. In Tauranga the services are funded entirely by the local community. We provide a professional service, employing registered social workers and trained financial mentors.
