Sadly, this is the reality for nearly <strong><span style="color: #0055a4;">7,500</span></strong> people in San Francisco.</p> <p>Without the basic necessities that so many of us take for granted, it is nearly impossible for the hundreds of men, women and children living under these conditions to break the cycle of homelessness. At SVDP-SF’s homeless shelter (MSC South), our mission starts with providing for the basic needs of the city’s homeless population, and extends to offer the care, guidance and personal support necessary for each and every person to truly thrive and rebuild their lives.</p> <p> </p> <h4 style="text-align: center;">Offering Shelter and Support to San Francisco’s<br /> Homeless Population</h4> <p><a href="https://svdp-sf.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/2017-MSC-Picture.jpg"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-1428 aligncenter" src="https://svdp-sf.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/2017-MSC-Picture-300x200.jpg" alt="" width="480" height="320" srcset="https://svdp-sf.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/2017-MSC-Picture-300x200.jpg 300w, https://svdp-sf.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/2017-MSC-Picture-768x513.jpg 768w, https://svdp-sf.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/2017-MSC-Picture-1024x684.jpg 1024w" sizes="(max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px" /></a></p> <p>Our shelter is the largest homeless shelter in Northern California, offering a wide range of services and assistance programs aimed to improve the basic quality of life for the individuals and families we serve.

shelter is more than just a temporary shelter or soup kitchen, it’s a lifeline for San Francisco’s homeless population. </span></strong>The work we do may start with food and shelter, but it extends far beyond these basic necessities in order to truly serve this city’s most vulnerable members on a personal and human level.</p> <p>By working with diverse partners, such as the local government, medical professionals and invaluable volunteers, the St. Vincent de Paul Society’s goal is to help anyone suffering from the cycles of homelessness have the chance to get back on their feet, not just so they can get by, but so they can truly thrive.</p> </div> <div class="cl"></div> <small class="metadata"> </small> </div> </article> </div> <div class="col-md-3 side-direction"> <aside
