Society of St Vincent dePaul provides several Community and Family services across the country in Dublin, Wicklow, Laois, Kerry, Galway and Mayo. Volunteer conferences oversee the works and programmes delivered by the services and in some cases provide the available programmes in the services.
Our Centre’s provide a safe, welcoming place for people to learn and grow, to develop new skills. The work of these centres focuses on the personal, educational and social development of the individual by providing a range of programmes for families, children and adults alike, with an aim to address the needs of the local communities they serve.
Through our Resource Centres we reach out to thousands of people throughout the country, helping to build self-esteem and confidence, to re-skill or simply instil a sense of belonging in the community, and make a positive impact in their lives.
