Originally founded in 1853, St. Vincent de Paul Louisville (SVDP) serves individuals and families in need, including those who are homeless, living in poverty, suffering from addiction, enduring mental illness or experiencing acute economic crisis.
SVDP offers a continuum of care that includes food, shelter, affordable housing, counseling, and emergency financial assistance with rent and utility bills. Our organization assists people regardless of race, color, national origin, age, disability, religion, or sex (including pregnancy, sexual orientation, and gender identity), with the goal of helping each person achieve self-sufficiency.
