Ozanam Orientation is the foundation of Vincentian formation. Tied to a national curriculum, it provides an overview of the historical, spiritual, and practical organization of the Society of Saint Vincent de Paul of Seattle | King County.

Led by a team of experienced Vincentians, this half-day training covers the key elements of our ministry for both new and current Vincentians. The orientation offers an opportunity to meet, learn from, and share with your fellow Vincentians. This training is required for new members within the first year of service.

We will cover:

  • The Society’s heritage and mission
  • How we are organized internationally, nationally and locally
  • The place of core documents, the Rule and the Manual
  • Vincentian spirituality
  • The Home Visit, our core ministry
  • Causes and conditions of poverty, and
  • Efforts for systemic change
