At Catholic Charities, we serve everyone, regardless of belief or background, and we employ qualified individuals who commit to our mission with the goal of transforming lives for the better.  One need not be Catholic to join our workforce nor to access our services.

Each year thousands of young people from across the eight counties of the Diocese of Cleveland participate in the many athletic programs offered through CYO Athletics. In the Catholic Youth Organization, the athletic competition gives each participant an opportunity to grow in character, ability, and community while honoring oneself, as well as one’s family, teammates, officials and church. The CYO in Northeast Ohio is part of Catholic Charities Diocese of Cleveland. As such, the program promotes the values of Dignity of Person, Hope, Service and Justice to all those whom we come in contact with each day.

What You Will Do:

  • Visit competition sites to monitor competitions and site activity.
