The mission of the St. Vincent de Paul Society of San Francisco is to offer hope and service on a direct person-to-person basis, working to break the cycles of homelessness and domestic violence. Founded in 1860, the St. Vincent de Paul Society of San Francisco (SVDP-SF) is a nonprofit organization that enriches our community by providing an essential safety net for those striving to overcome poverty, homelessness, addiction and domestic violence. Through a wide range of shelter, housing and extensive support services, individual assistance, and volunteerism, we help those in need become self-sufficient and active members of our society, while treating all our clients with dignity and respect.
