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.
Emergency Family Services have Moved!
As of August 1, 2022, we are excited to announce we will be improving access to emergency family services by shifting these resources to one central location — the First Place Annex located at 4060 W. Amazon Drive, Eugene, Ore.!
