Catholic Charities
Child and Family Services
Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada offers a variety of programs designed to help families, the homeless and individuals get back on the path to self-sufficiency. Services include housing, food, job training resources, case management and more.
Adoption
Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada has decided to re-brand and create a separate company for its Adoption Services Program. The new company is called Loving Hearts Adoption Services. Under the new name, we will be able to build off nearly a century of experience - facilitating thousands of adoptions with better public visibility from under the former identity of Catholic Charities of Southern Nevada Adoption Services and focus on best serving all members of the adoption triad: birth families & parents, adoptive parents and adoptees. The program will stand alone with a separate logo and collateral materials for promotion of its services.
