Rebuilding Hope
Guided by our mission to extend the healing ministry of Jesus to God’s people, we continue to transform lives and inspire hope for a brighter, healthier future.
Our Story
The Sisters of Charity Health System, rooted in the faith-based legacy of the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine, is a beacon of hope, serving 1.3 million people per year. With a mission to uplift individuals, families and communities, we provide services that heal the whole person, such as health care, care for older adults, behavioral health, support for children and families, meal and produce services and outreach programs across Ohio and South Carolina.
Ministries, Programs and Initiatives
Each ministry, program, or initiative within the Sisters of Charity Health System plays a vital role in fulfilling our shared mission.
