Aligned Work
Society of St. Vincent de Paul of Waukesha provides immediate safety during extreme weather for Waukesha families by utilizing local motels when traditional shelter space is full or unavailable. With limited family shelter capacity in Waukesha County, this program ensures that children and parents are not left without safe options during dangerous winter conditions or other emergencies. Emergency shelter is paired with housing counseling and diversion services provided by St. Vincent de Paul staff, including connection to family or community supports, budgeting guidance, and referrals to employment and benefit resources.
