Most of the services provided are the result of home visits. These are done by the churches that are part of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul in King County in an effort to help their neighbors. Volunteers from the society and local churches will visit neighbors in their homes. Then there may be assistance, including financial aid, for paying bills.

These volunteers will make what amounts to thousands of in-home person-to-person visits per year. All parts of King County and all towns can have a visit done, and even the homeless can get help. They are very important as the visits help determine the exact nature of the help that is required by the client. Another reason this is done is studies prove that these visits are effective because they give the charity a true and more accurate assessment of the needs of the family.

They are also very effective for the client as applicants that are requesting assistance will not have to arrange for child care, take time off from work or find transportation to a nearby center. The Seattle area charity uses these volunteers (or Vincentians) and partner with over 50 neighborhood-based St. Vincent de Paul affiliated churches, parishes and non-profit groups.

Dozens of churches are part of the faith based, religious charity. Whether food, one time or long term financial help or housing, or basic needs, assistance is offered. The main phone number in the greater Seattle area is 206-767-6449. While the office is at 5950 Fourth Avenue South, Seattle, WA 98108. Call to speak to a St. Vincent staff member.
