Angeline's Wing
Hope Has a New Home.
Catholic Charities proudly introduces Angeline’s Wing for Children &
Families—an expansion of our Sioux City location created to meet the
growing mental health needs of children, adolescents, and families across
our diocese and throughout Siouxland.
Today, more than one-third of our Sioux City clients are children and
adolescents. In recent years, that number has risen dramatically, reflecting
the broader youth mental health crisis.
Angeline’s Wing was built in response to this urgent need. Designed
specifically for young children and their families, it offers age-appropriate,
trauma-informed therapy spaces that are welcoming and rooted in dignity.
Angeline's Wing was built thanks to a generous estate gift from Angeline Thom of Ashton, a devoted Catholic who blessed us with this opportunity. Other grants and donations have also made the project possible, including the MRHD Economic Development Match Grant of $1 million and a number of other generous individuals and businesses.
This new wing strengthens access to care. Catholic Charities serves
children of all ages, faiths, and backgrounds—regardless of a family’s
ability to pay. In a neighborhood and region with limited specialized
providers, Angeline’s Wing expands access to essential outpatient mental
health services and provides the care without a cost barrier.
Guided by faith and compassion, Catholic Charities remains committed to
helping children not only heal—but thrive.
