About Caritas of Austin

Caritas of Austin believes that when every person has a stable place to call home, they can realize their full potential and contribute to our community. We build wellbeing by making sure that people have a safe home, access to healthy groceries, jobs that provide a reliable living wage, and educational opportunities to learn life skills. All of us need a sturdy foundation and layers of support in our lives to thrive; that’s what creates a strong community. Our innovative, personalized and proven approach to building wellbeing and ending homelessness creates a more vibrant Austin for everyone. OUR MISSION We prevent and end homelessness for people in Greater Austin. GET INVOLVED Volunteers are helping create a more vibrant Austin for all as they partner with staff members and clients to build wellbeing. Whether it’s serving a nutritious lunch, working with clients directly to achieve their life goals, or supporting staff members to make our programs even stronger, you are helping end homelessness together.
