Supportive Housing Ministries

St. Vincent de Paul Society operates three supportive housing ministries for individuals and families throughout Montgomery County, Ohio who experience significant barriers to sustaining housing, particularly severe persistent mental illness or other disabling conditions. These ministries provide a safe, stable place to live along with ongoing case management, life skills education opportunities, connections to agency services including employment, addiction and mental health recovery, spirituality, recreation, and social activities. All services are provided with a person-centered approach to help each individual and family achieve stable permanent housing.

Our faith-based, community-minded approach sets our supportive housing ministries apart, with opportunities to grow in spirituality, and gather and connect with staff, residents, volunteers, and community members. Community builds connection and forms foundations of trust for deep, authentic relationships that can support clients as they integrate into their new homes and neighborhoods.

Supportive housing ministries include:

• Safe and affordable housing in one of our communities:
  • • Kettering Commons for families
    • DePaul Center for adult men
    • Safe Haven for adult men and women
• Comprehensive case management services to assist participants in recognizing their strengths and reaching their personal goals
• Personalized action plans which include personal finances, home management, education, employment, and personal development
• Referrals to other services to provide physical and mental health care
• Assistance in locating safe, affordable independent housing

Clients must be referred from an emergency shelter or one of our community partners.
