Emergency Assistance

Rent, Utilities, Vehicle Repairs, and Clothing

Catholic Charities Emergency Assistance program provides help with rent, utilities, vehicle repairs, and clothing assistance to residents of the Diocese of Arlington who are facing a temporary financial emergency.

Through its various ministries and services, Catholic Charities of the Diocese of Arlington seeks to implement the Church’s mission of social justice in the Diocese of Arlington in ways that strengthen individuals, families, and communities.

Due to a large volume of requests, we are currently at capacity for the month of December.  Please check back for assistance on Tuesday, January 6th after 9 a.m.

What We Do

Catholic Charities Emergency Assistance ministry serves individuals and families who are experiencing emergency financial needs and have received a late rent or utility cutoff notice, or are in need of car repairs to pass a failed Virginia Safety and/or Emissions test. We provide assistance to people who live within the geographical boundaries of the Diocese of Arlington regardless of race, religion, or nationality.

To receive assistance with rent, utilities, car repairs, or clothing, Catholic Charities requires recipients to meet eligibility requirements. See details by clicking below.
