| Form 990, Part III, Line 4d Description of other program services | (Expenses $ 316,412 including grants of $ 724)(Revenue $ 0) FAMILY & COMMUNITY SERVICES Services include: Pregnancy Services: Services are provided to women and men and their families who are experiencing an untimely pregnancy. Clients may be single or married. Services offered include: professional counseling and case management, education on pro-life options, and referrals to meet needs beyond the scope of our service array. Professional social workers are able to extend pro-life support and services after the birth of the child that are designed to promote the ongoing well-being and safety of everyone in the household. While adoption is discussed as a viable option, the majority of clients choose to parent their children themselves. ECHO (Education Creates Hope and Opportunity) - Ft Wayne - South Bend: This school and home-based program provides guidance and resources to pregnant and parenting teens, enabling them to complete their high school education and successfully parent their children. Currently, services are provided in these schools: Northrop, Snider, Leo, Columbia City, and other alternative school programs. In 2011, ECHO was expanded to the South Bend area. ECHO has also expanded to serve young adults up to age of 24. Educational support for young parents is for those who are enrolled in any Allen County and St. Joseph and Elkhart County continuing education or job-training program. As of June 30, 2016 in the Fort Wayne Office 81 Clients were served and 12 of 13 clients received their high school diplomas. In the South Bend Office 36 clients parenting 43 children were served and 11 of 13 clients met their education goals. Mental Health Counseling-South Bend: Due to increased demand for quality counseling services from a Catholic perspective, Catholic Charities is in the process of rebuilding its counseling program throughout the diocese. In 2016, we added one full-time counselor in our South Bend office to serve students and family members referred from Catholic schools in St. Joseph County. By 2017, we expect to renew our Indiana Medicaid and third-party insurance provider statuses to enable us to accept more referrals for mental health counseling and marriage and family therapy. |
