Helpline
The St. Vincent de Paul Helpline receives hundreds of calls per week from needy neighbors looking for help. Our staff and volunteers talk with callers, receive their contact information and then work with all of our Vincentians to get help to callers through home visits.Several reminders for working with the Help Line:
  • Please don't use the Helpline number if you have questions or comments about a neighbor - this line is just for people in need.
  • To discuss Helpline operations, or if your Conference needs to close temporarily for any reason, please contact the Helpline Supervisor, Chris Kelsh, directly a 206-767-6449 Ext. 1116 or via email.
  • If your Conference has been unable to get in touch with a neighbor for a particular reason, please let Chris know so he make a record in the system. For example, if the neighbor has a reactive dog, this is important for future home visitors to know.
Our Helpline is open 8:00 am to 3:00 pm Monday to Friday. During these times, neighbors may call the Helpline at: 206-767-6449
Neighbors can also request help through the Online Assistance Request Form, which is available 7:00 am to 7:00 pm Monday-Friday.
