    • Bp. Barron's Reflections

      • Saturday, May 24, 2025
        Friends, in today’s Gospel, Jesus warns us to expect persecution.
  • Our Vision:
    Since 1915, Catholic Social Services of the Upper Peninsula has been a shining example of God's work in the UP. CSSUP continues to grow its capacity to serve individuals and families in need, promoting the teachings of the Catholic Church and God's universal love. We are committed to good stewardship and prepared to adjust to our changing environment, including expanding our services to meet increased demands in more UP communities.

Please call for more information!
    Marriage Counseling

    Family Counseling
    • Family counseling is available for any family experiencing stress regarding dual careers, parenting issues, losses and grieving, emotional or physical abuse, and problems concerning substance abuse.  Family dynamics and communication styles are reviewed and patterns of communication, conflict resolution and respect are explored.

    Pregnancy Counseling
    • We encourage birth parents who are experiencing an unplanned pregnancy to take advantage of the support an agency can offer.  We help birth parents look at their options and assist them in exploring other resources.  We invite all birthparents to be a part of our program, not just those looking at an adoption option.  There is no charge for this service.

      Will you be the Foster Home we are waiting for?

      Currently, there is a high demand for foster homes that will accommodate and be made accessible for sibling groups and older children.

      SIBLING GROUPS: Keeping families – sisters and brothers – together is an important part of child development.  We need homes with space and room in their hearts for the possibility of being placed with 2… 3… 4 children at one time.  Child welfare workers work extra hard to keep siblings together, and CSSUP is calling on our U.P. community to help us make this possible! 

      OLDER CHILDREN: Those especially feeling lost and forgotten.  The older children placed in foster care are often our most vulnerable.  We need homes willing to finally be that stable, safe place they need to grow and develop.

      If you are willing to take that big step to help a member of your community in need, please contact us at (906) 828-5003
