Founded in 1941 to tackle the dreadful poverty in Dublin in the war years, the Catholic Social Service Conference as it was then called, set up its famed food centres providing nourishing meals for those who were hungry, while the clothing department provided those in need with new clothes.
The growth in CROSSCARE’s services emerged as the needs and concept of poverty changed in the Archdiocese over the following sixty-five years. However the central remit of this social care agency has always been to address and redress poverty, marginalisation and social exclusion in Dublin.
