Catholic Charities USA is the national voluntary membership organization for Catholic Charities agencies throughout the United States and its territories.[3] Catholic Charities USA is a member of Caritas Internationalis, an international federation of Catholic social service organizations.[4] Catholic Charities USA is the national office of 167 local Catholic Charities agencies nationwide.

Founded in 1910 as the National Conference of Catholic Charities (NCCC), the organization changed its name in 1986 to Catholic Charities USA (CCUSA).[5] CCUSA's president and CEO, Donna Markham, is the first female president to lead CCUSA. She has held this position since 2015.[6] On July 25, 2023, Catholic Charities USA announced that Kerry Alys Robinson, an expert in Catholic leadership and philanthropy, will serve as the next president and CEO of CCUSA beginning on August 23, 2023.[7]

The organization's archives are housed at the Catholic University of America.[8]
