“While we never stopped serving meals, we are thrilled to get back to in-person, indoor dining at St. Joseph Diner,” said Ben Broussard, Chief of External Affairs for Catholic Charities of Acadiana. “The Diner has been an extension of the generosity of Acadiana for decades, creating a daily opportunity for both community and relief for those we serve. We welcome our guests and volunteers to serve alongside us in this work of mercy.”
Throughout the COVID19 pandemic, St. Joseph Diner produced and distributed 400,000 meals annually to those experiencing hunger and food insecurity. St. Joseph Diner is a 100% donor-supported program of Catholic Charities of Acadiana, having operated as a traditional soup kitchen since 1983.
