What is a Catholic Counseling Organization?
- A Christian inspiration not only of individual counselors but of the counseling organization itself,
- A continuing reflection of the Catholic faith upon the healing of emotional, spiritual, intellectual, and relational suffering caused by mental illness and addictions,
- Fidelity to the Christian message as it comes to us through the Church, and
- An institutional commitment to the service of the people of God and of the human family in their pilgrimage to the transcendent goal which gives meaning to life.
