The Casa Maria Catholic Worker Community in Tucson, Arizona, is a dedicated non-profit organization deeply rooted in the Catholic Worker Movement’s principles of nonviolence, voluntary poverty, and direct service to the poor and marginalized. This intentional community provides essential humanitarian aid, including daily meals through its soup kitchen, clothing, and sometimes used furniture, to those experiencing homelessness, food insecurity, and poverty in the Tucson area. Beyond immediate relief, Casa Maria actively engages in social justice advocacy, addressing issues like affordable housing, gentrification in South Tucson, and broader peace and anti-war efforts, striving to create a more just and compassionate society. They operate several houses, offering short-term and longer-term housing solutions for single mothers and children, refugees, asylum seekers, and families in need, embodying their commitment to hospitality and community transformation without seeking government funding.
