Catholic Charities of Greater Nebraska

Catholic Charities’ main campus, St. Teresa of Calcutta, is located in Omaha, Nebraska, on Bedford Avenue. The Columbus campus was relocated to Omaha in 2022. It’s in a commercial district with access to suburbs and local parks and sport rec centers. Each facility offers a variety of social services and behavioral health support.

If you’re seeking behavioral health support, you can schedule an appointment to meet with therapists, social workers, and psychologists at several of the facilities throughout Omaha. There are also school mental health services for children experiencing crises. Substance use evaluations are available for walk-ins on Wednesday mornings. All counseling services are faith based and designed to build thriving families.

However, not all programs are available at all locations and calling the main headquarters can direct you to the proper location. All major insurances are accepted and services are provided in multiple languages.

Those over the age of 60 might qualify for the Sassy Senior Program, located at the St. Martin de Porres Center. There are exercise classes and social gatherings to aid in keeping seniors active to prevent isolation and loneliness. The food pantry program offers two mobile pantries with homebound delivery if you’re unable to get to a food pantry.

If you are experiencing domestic violence, there’s a 24/7 hotline that offers shelter and confidentiality. Women with children are accommodated at the shelter to address any concerns for safety. Counseling and skill building classes are provided along with assistance with legal issues.

Catholic Charities offers many additional programs worth checking out such as business education classes, immigration assistance, and post adoption genealogy research. Whatever your need, The Greater Nebraska Catholic Charities is willing to help.
