Catholic Social Services

Welcome to Catholic Social Services, located at 31 Lincoln Street in Auckland, New Zealand. As the social outreach agency of the Diocese of Auckland, we are dedicated to responding to the needs and concerns of people with Christ's love. We believe in inclusivity, and our services are available to individuals of all backgrounds and beliefs.

With a strong commitment to the wellbeing of our community, Auckland Catholic Social Services stands beside those who face great challenges in making positive changes for themselves and their families. We consider it a privilege to work with these individuals, supporting them on their journey.

Our guiding principle is the Arohanui o Hehu Karaiti i Waenganui i o Tatou Whanau, which translates to Christ's compassion and charity in our communities - love in action. We strive to improve the social conditions of communities, groups, families/whanau, and individuals, particularly those who are disadvantaged. Through our professional support services, guidance, and assistance, we aim to make a positive impact on their lives.

We are committed to empowering individuals to make their own decisions and lead their own lives, regardless of their age, gender, ability, race, religious conviction, or economic circumstances. In doing so, we honor the principles of Te Tiriti o Waitangi and The Treaty of Waitangi.

At the core of our Christian message and Catholic tradition is a deep-rooted commitment to providing social services to those in need, regardless of their spiritual beliefs. We believe in the inherent dignity of every person and strive to uphold this belief in all our interactions.

If you are in need of support or guidance, we welcome you to reach out to us. Together, we can create a community characterized by compassion, charity, and love in action.
