St Vincent de Paul of Lane County Society of Lane County (SVdP) is an anchor in the community: from one-of-a-kind programs addressing education equity for children and youth experiencing homelessness, to emergency shelter programs, to our deep inventory of affordable housing, SVdP provides an unparalleled level of vital services.
SVdP has a long history of pivoting to meet community needs through unique, innovative programs. SVdP is adept at nimbly responding to community need due to our commitment to serving our unhoused neighbors, and our deep reservoir of highly skilled and experienced homelessness services staff has a proven track record of developing and managing affordable housing projects, including the acquisition, stabilization and rehabilitation of over 8 mobile home parks. SVDP has received and managed hundreds of both government and foundation grants over its 38-year history. Moreover, SVPD is a nonprofit that generates the bulk of its revenue for social service programs through its extensive recycling and upcycling businesses.
Upcoming projects include …
New 8-plex at The Annex on Amazon
St. Vincent de Paul Society of Lane County, Inc. (SVdP) broke ground July 12 on a new eight-unit transitional housing apartment complex adjacent to SVdP’s First Place Family Center at The Annex, 4060 W. Amazon Drive. The homes will be supportive housing for local families who are transitioning out of homelessness — and will serve as a resource designed to bridge the daunting gap they face between emergency shelter and long-term housing. The project is made possible by a $2 million donation from CBT Nuggets, a Eugene-based online IT training company.
