MISSION STATEMENT
Caritas is dedicated to empowering students for success in school and beyond.
VISION
To make available comprehensive student & family services, including supportive guidance, mental health intervention, and basic life needs which are coordinated by an experienced Family Liaison present daily on the school campus. Caritas collaborates with schools to connect students and families to tailored community resources, addressing health, behavioral, and family crises. Serving students facing challenges such as poverty, substance abuse, and poor mental health, Caritas seeks to ensure safe and healthy environments both at school and at home.

VALUES
We believe that every child needs and deserves someone to provide them with encouragement, academic support, and hope. Peace in this world begins with a child that is loved!
WHO BENEFITS?
Those who benefit the most from the work of Caritas are the students and families of Fredericksburg Independent School District. Our Family Liaisons are housed on the school campuses and can immediately meet with students once a need has been identified by a teacher, counselor, or administrator. Students benefit from someone who knows not only the resources within Fredericksburg, but who also understands the needs of the students. As a result, the liaisons become another person on campus who is looking out for that student and meeting needs as they arise.
