Mission Statement
What Does It Mean to ‘Be Father Joe’ You may wonder about our new call to action, our challenge to the community “Be Father Joe.” This simple tagline is meant to convey a very profound idea. For over 30 years, Father Joe Carroll has worked tirelessly on behalf of the homeless and poor of our community. In the minds of many, he stands for the very best of what San Diego can be. His work has become a symbol of hope, of second chances–a living example that one man, standing up defiantly against an insurmountable problem can make a difference. We believe that like Father Joe, we can all make a difference if we so choose. The only question that remains is will you, like Father Joe, choose to make that difference?
