SVdP exists in a very unique environment. We are an organization of laymen and women who, as volunteers, provide personal counseling and assistance to our clients. We are Catholic in nature but not funded by the Catholic Church. These small groups of volunteers, numbering over 1,100, come together to minister to the needy in 63 parishes covering more than 30 counties. The Council office was formed to fulfill technical support needs of the conferences as well as to care for the needy in areas not served by the parishes.
