Who We Serve
Come for help, leave with love
Our clients come from all walks of life and many struggle with homelessness, addiction, joblessness, and mental health issues. St. Vincent de Paul's direct service campus offers our guests free meals, showers, clean clothing and a place to rest and learn about available resources for their specific needs.
Jon
Jon joined our Kitchen of Champions program, excited not only about the hands-on culinary training, but also about the program’s classroom curriculum. Up to that point in his life, he had not received the tools to prepare him for a full-time job.
The Kitchen of Champions program not only taught him food service skills but it also offered him the training to create a resume, prepare for an interview, and job readiness to get him ready for what is expected in the real world.
Jon found the SVdP job training program gave him a solid foundation to find employment. After a few years in food service Jon knew he had the skills and a solid job history to make a career change. He is now employed full time at Tesla Motors.
