Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York – https://catholiccharitiesny.org/
Chief Executive Officer
March 2025
Organization Overview:
The Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of New York (CC) is a federation of some 90 independent affiliated agencies throughout the New York Metropolitan area.
For over a hundred years, Catholic Charities of New York has been improving the lives of millions in need regardless of race, ethnicity, and religion. We annually serve more than 400,000 individuals through 90+ agencies on the ground locally at 300+ sites in urban, suburban, and rural neighborhoods and communities throughout Manhattan, the Bronx, Staten Island, and seven counties of the Lower Hudson Valley.
CC is integral to the mission of the Archdiocese of New York and one of its major ministries. Its Board of Trustees exercises fiduciary responsibility for the governance and management of the entity. The Board of Trustees and CEO are appointed by the Members of the corporation chaired by the Cardinal Archbishop of New York.
Our Agencies:
Our network of 90+ affiliated independent Catholic human services agencies touches almost every human need, giving special priority to the poor and vulnerable. Each agency, with its distinctive programs, is rooted in the shared Catholic belief that every person is made in the image of God, worthy of dignity and respect, and draws inspiration from our Catholic Christian tradition and values. Catholic Charities seeks to build the individual capacity of each agency and strengthen our collective impact to build a society that is more just and compassionate.
Within the federation Catholic Charities has different relationships with these independent affiliated agencies, each of which has their own Boards and management:
- Catholic Charities Community Services (CCCS) is the most closely aligned and one of the largest service providers. CC’s CEO serves a Board Chair.
- The Catholic Charities Alliance serves as sole corporate Member for ten agencies. CC’s CEO serves as President of CCA and sits on each of these agency Boards.
- The remaining affiliated agencies are part of the federation without any formal governance relationship.
Our Vision:
Catholic Charities helps solve the problems of New Yorkers in need — non-Catholics and Catholics alike. The neglected child, the homeless family and the hungry senior are among those for whom we provide help and create hope. We rebuild lives and touch almost every human need promptly, locally, day in and day out, always with compassion and dignity. We help your neighbors as you would like to be helped if your family were in need.
Our Mission:
Catholic Charities seeks to uphold the dignity of each person as made in the image of God by serving the basic needs of the poor, troubled, frail and oppressed of all religions. Our programs protect and nurture children and youth, strengthen families, resolve crises, feed the hungry, shelter the homeless, support the physically and emotionally challenged, and welcome and integrate immigrants and refugees.
Catholic Charities Second Century Strategic Blueprint 2024-2028:

Position Overview:

Appendix
Catholic Charities Community Services (CCCS) Board Chair: Because of the unique position of CCCS among the Catholic Charities federation of agencies the time and attention of CC’s CEO as Board Chair is significantly greater than the average engagement of other non-profit human service Board Chairs.
Among the factors that account for this include:
- CCCS has grown over the past decade and now is among the largest five of CC agencies with an annual budget of ~$85 M employing more than 700 staff. It administers more than 100 different government contracts that account for over 65% of its revenue.
- This agency is the major recipient of the CC’s private fundraising (~$7-8 M)
- Its services are the broadest and most diverse among CC agencies. These services include emergency food, eviction prevention, immigration and refugee services, residences for those with mental disabilities, and youth in- and after-school support programs.
- CCCS is the “go-to” agency when a critical need surfaces, often quickly, to which CC needs to respond.
- There is a business services agreement between CC & CCCS for certain back office and other functions.
- NB: Leadership Transition – The current CCCS CEO indicated her plan to retire, and the search for her successor has begun and is expected to be completed by Spring 2025.
Federation of Catholic Charities Agencies: Catholic Charities CEO is the prime representative and liaison of Catholic Charities and the Archdiocese of NY with the federation of 90 independent affiliated agencies. Presence at agency events is a significant part of the position. The Senior Director of Federation Advancement who reports directly to the CC’s CEO is the senior CC executive who collaborates with the CEO in carrying out functions related to the federation of agencies. These functions include public policy advocacy, sharing best practices, networking and convening, and annual reporting. Providing agency specific support when agencies face critical situations is a significant part of the position, more often related to CC Alliance agencies.
- Representative and Liaison with Affiliated Agencies: The description of the relationship to the independent affiliated agencies of the federation with CC is spelled out in the “Guide” developed in 2015. In his introductory letter Cardinal Dolan wrote: “I happily and confidently rely on Catholic Charites as the means through which I fulfill my responsibilities to support our many charitable ministries throughout the Archdiocese of New York.” This guide lays out what affiliated with Catholic Charities means: both benefits and opportunities and expectations of our agencies.
- President of the Catholic Charities Alliance: Although each agency is independent, the structured role of the Catholic Charities Alliance being the Member of 10 agencies, requires more attention and time spent with these agencies in Board, committee, and other meetings. An important aspect of this is maintaining supportive relationships with the Board and management. Timely availability to respond to urgent situations is required. Board and management succession planning requires ongoing attention. The extent of involvement and engagement with individual agencies varies over time depending upon specific situation of individual agencies. For example, for about one year CC CEO served as Co-Chair of Astor Services Board during management and Board transition. In addition, non ex officio, CC CEO is serving as Board Chair of Catholic Homes/Institute for Human Development.
