Catholic Charities of Northern Nevada changes lives for good. We help people of all cultures and beliefs rise up out of poverty and overcome the barriers to self-sufficiency. We do this through a broad range of services, including housing assistance, food resources, and other basic needs services. Each year, we serve more than 340,000 local people in need. CCNN has been serving individuals and families for 70 years. While we are affiliated with the Diocese of Reno, CCNN is a separately incorporated nonprofit agency. We are self-funded and operate independently with an Executive Director, Board of Directors, and separate financial structure. We are part of the nation's largest social services network through our affiliation with Catholic Charities USA, whic serves more than 7 million people each year. Our goal is to "ease the pain of poverty".
