It is personalized involvement that takes the form of intervention, consultation, or often through the direct dollar or an in-kind service. The Society collaborates with other commissions in the parish to help relieve the need and address the causes.
The Society is an international organization, organized locally, making no distinction in those served because, in them, Vincentians see the face of Christ.
Activities: Meetings are held on the 1st Thursday following the 1st Tuesday of every month. Meetings are supportive gatherings of prayer and reflection with a primary concern of charity and justice.
