The Omaha District Council has groups called
Conferences in 38 Catholic parishes in the metro
area,as well as one in Norfolk, three in
Columbus, and one in Valley.
When a client is referred to the
Conference whose parish area they live within,  
whenever possible, members
of the Conference make a home visit to learn
of the specific need that prompted the client to
contact the Society and to ascertain any other
ways they might aid the client.
Types of assistance often provided by
the Conferences include:
assistance with past due rent or
mortgage payments to prevent eviction;
payment of past due utility bills to prevent
shut-off of heat, lights, and water, or to have
the utilities turned back on;or the purchase
of much needed furniture through the
St. Vincent de Paul Thrift Stores.
Because each case is unique, there are
multitudes of other ways that conferences
may assist their clients, often financially,but
always with emotional and spiritual support also.



When Jesus saw the
crowds, He had
compassion on them,
because they were poor
and helpless, like sheep
without a shepherd.  He
said to His disciples, "The
harvest is plentiful but the
workers are few. Ask the
Lord of the harvest,
therefore, to sendout
workers into His harvest
field."  
 Matthew 9:36-38
