Strategic Plan 2024-2028
The St Vincent de Paul Society’s heritage shapes and inspires a living and contemporary tradition. It is a heritage of which we are proud – it is faith in action to address poverty and inequality.
We are inspired by the basic tenets of our mission and vision: to work ‘to shape a more just and compassionate society’ and to offer a ‘hand up’ to people experiencing disadvantage. We respect the dignity of the people we assist and encourage them to take control of their own destiny.
We are spiritual and connected. Our spirituality is guided by the ministry of Jesus – radical inclusivity, restoration and accompaniment. We aspire to live values of commitment, compassion, respect, empathy, advocacy and courage each day.
We are committed to those people who live on the margins of our community and are guided by Catholic social principles of dignity of the human person and solidarity.
All of our people contribute to the common purpose of serving the most disadvantaged in our community, providing a ‘hand up’ and helping them to rebuild their lives.
