Celebrating 175 Years of the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine


For 175 years, our founders—the Sisters of Charity of St. Augustine (CSA)—have lived a powerful calling: To bring healing, hope and compassionate care to all, especially those most in need.


What began in 1851 with the Sisters’ arrival in Cleveland, Ohio, has grown into a legacy that continues today through the Sisters of Charity Health System and its many ministries in Cleveland, Canton and South Carolina. We are honored to be a ministry of the Sisters of Charity Health System and to be able to carry forward this story of faith in action.
