Catholic Charities Solidarity Team

GLOBAL SOLIDARITY, OPERATION RICE BOWL & JUSTICE FOR IMMIGRANTS

Catholic Charities Solidarity Team (CCST) collaborates with the national Catholic Relief Services (CRS) headquarters and the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB), to advance global solidarity and social justice. 

The local Metuchen Diocese Team links the people of the Diocese of Metuchen with the poor of the world, with special focus on the people of the Diocese of Santa Rosa, Guatemala; and also those of the Diocese of Thanjavur, India.

CCST coordinates the local annual Lenten world hunger awareness and fund-raising efforts of Operation Rice Bowl.  Proceeds from this annual program support local food security initiatives through small grants; and internationally, through contributions to CRS national headquarters projects.

In addition, CSST coordinates the Justice for Immigrants efforts in the Diocese of Metuchen. The local Team promotes awareness for, and advocates on behalf of, immigrant members of the local community in need of a voice, and just treatment.
