Our Impact
For 68 years, St. Vincent de Paul of Lane County’s social service programs have provided supportive resources for individuals, children, and families who live in poverty and/or homelessness, serving 35,000 people annually. SVdP operates more than 1,500 units of affordable housing and two day-access shelters for families and individuals experiencing homelessness, offers low-barrier employment, and administers many programs that foster long-term stability. Waste-based businesses generate revenue for social services and divert millions of pounds of reusable materials from landfills annually.

SVdP’s housing waitlist application is now available online and for in-person pickup at our 2890 Chad Drive office. Completed applications are being accepted ONLY on Thursday, December 1 between 8:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m. More detailed information about the waitlist process can be found HERE.
