Social Work

“The sisters show preference for those services
that promote the empowerment of women
and the care of children.”
Constitutional Directory 66.4

Sisters of Notre Dame serve as counselors for families, children, and adults. We work with persons who are physically and mentally challenged, hospitalized, those in nursing homes, and extended care facilities. Sisters serve in mission stations, in home health care, and areas of maternal training and child care. We provide training for women and girls to allow them to become independent and self-sufficient. We provide shelter and counseling for those caught in abusive relationships and human trafficking.
