Independent Seniors. Thriving Families.

CSS is an anti-poverty agency whose goal is to empower people in need, regardless of background, with the tools they need to reach their full potential. Our efforts are focused on two specific populations that allow us to have the most significant impact in our community: families and seniors. Our unique approach to helping our clients—most of whom are marginalized or struggling with poverty—is designed to help them overcome barriers to success while respecting their dignity and acknowledging their value to our community. 

Our programs are holistic in nature, as we believe the cycle of poverty rarely has one solution, but rather requires a web of interconnected services for individuals and families to break out of it. CSS has 75 years of experience working with seniors and families in Central Ohio. Each year, our agency helps 33,000 people in our 23-county region. We are accredited by the Council on Accreditation and the Better Business Bureau to illustrate our commitment to best practice social service and sound business management. We are a member agency of Catholic Charities USA and the Human Service Chamber of Franklin County.

We invite you to join us in serving people in ways that help seniors live independent, connected lives and families thrive!
