At Saint Therese, we do ordinary things with extraordinary love. It’s a way of life that guides our path every day. Our story began in 1968. Inspired by the Sisters of Saint Benedict, who receive all as Christ, and grounded in the Catholic faith, Saint Therese has thoughtfully evolved to best provide for the individuals, families and neighborhoods we serve. As a nonprofit organization, we are grateful for the philanthropic support of generous donors through the Saint Therese Foundation, support that strengthens services and inspires innovation. We work hard to serve a larger purpose by establishing a place where everyone feels welcomed, valued and loved.
