Welcome to St. Vincent de Paul Center!
Since 1915, St. Vincent de Paul Center has been serving the
needs of the working poor of Chicago
at the corner of Halsted and Webster. Sponsored by the Daughters of
Charity, St. Vincent’s provides vital
programs and services in the areas of child development, social
services, outreach to the homeless and services for the elderly.
- Child
Development: St. Vincent’s
provides care for over 440 children, ranging in age from three
months to 13 years. The program includes early childhood education
programs, kindergarten programs, and a before/after-school/summer
camp program. The program
is NAEYC accredited, which is the mark of high-quality early
childhood education.
- Services
for the Elderly: The Center provides outreach, assistance and case
management for more than 100
low-income, isolated and mobility-limited Chicago seniors.
- Clinical
Services support: St. Vincent’s
master’s-level social workers provide support and services for
both children and families.
- Homeless
Outreach: The program offers services to homeless
individuals and those in danger of becoming homeless through
preventive measures, provides basic needs items and services to
clients, and connects clients with programs and services, such as
housing and job training that will improve their situations.
In these programs, and in all that it does, St. Vincent de
Paul Center strives to carry out its services and programs in the
Vincentian tradition of compassionate charism, while serving the
community with dignity and respect.
Whether you are seeking services or are interested in
volunteering or making a donation to our agency, we invite you to
become a part of the St. Vincent de Paul Center family.
St. Vincent de Paul Center—“we’re here because we care.”
