Motivated by Christ's love, we bring hope to life, especially for those most in need. We envision communities where people are treated with dignity and respect, their basic needs are met, and they are empowered to enhance the quality of their own lives. Catholic Charities Serving Central Washington provides help and creates hope for thousands of people each year regardless of religious, social, or economic backgrounds. Though serving the outreach efforts of the Diocese of Yakima, Catholic Charities is a separate 501(c)3 charitable organization, funded in part by the State of Washington, federal contracts, the United Way across Central Washington, fees for service, grants, and charitable contributions. Although rooted in a Catholic tradition that shapes its core mission of service to all, at times as many as 85% of the agency's staff is non-Catholic. Similarly, the vast majority of those being served are not Catholic. With nearly 32 service locations and almost 48,000 people served annually, the agency remains a testimony to its ongoing mission of "Bringing Hope to Life."

Services Offered

Child, Adult, Family Counseling - Whether it's individual counseling, couple counseling, family counseling, or group therapy, our mental health professionals can help individuals build upon their strengths to overcome the struggles they encounter in life. We accept Medicaid managed care, insurance, and a sliding fee for clients who do not have managed care or insurance coverage.

Psychiatry and Medication Management - That's why Catholic Charities' therapists, case managers, peers, and physicians work together to provide treatment and support to help alleviate symptoms, manage chronic symptoms, and enhance recovery. We do this by stabilizing medications, teaching social and living skills, and by offering help with employment and day-to-day activities.

Mental Health Crisis - If you're thinking about suicide, are worried about a friend or loved one, or would like emotional support, there is help. Depression, sudden life changes, loss, and difficult circumstances or imbalances in the brain can bring about suicidal thoughts. When we are overwhelmed by a difficult situation, we can lose hope. Without hope, we might mistakenly feel like suicide is the only solution. It isn't. In the middle of crisis, it can be difficult to see a way out.

Substance Use Disorder / Outpatient Chemical Dependency Treatment - Substance use disorders are treatable and complete remission is possible. Recovery, however, is often a long-term process that may involve multiple efforts. Because addiction affects so many facets of an individual's functioning - from the ability to tolerate frustration to establishing and a maintaining a productive role in society - our treatment focuses on many dimensions of life, including family roles and work skills as well as mental health.

Therapeutic Classrooms - We offer early learning and child care options for children who otherwise may not have access or may not be successful in a typical child care or preschool setting. Our staff are trained and supported to provide nurturing and responsive care with an emphasis on social-emotional learning to help children prepare for their next learning environment. Parents may work with a therapist or home visitor to support change and positive behavior in the home.
