Agency Response to COVID-19

While COVID-19 may change how our services are delivered, St. Francis’ commitment to our community is unchanged. We remain available and ready to consult with clients, answer questions, and connect them with resources, and are still taking new clients where we are able. If you are in need of assistance, please call the relevant site:

Legal Aid: 314-977-3993

Immigrant Services: 314-773-6100

Pathways to Progress: 314-269-5055

Administration: 314-932-3300

We are deeply committed to the health, well-being, and safety of our clients and staff. Because of this, we will temporarily cease walk-in appointments, group meetings, and in-person visits until at least the end of May.

During difficult times like these, we all band together as a community to help our neighbors. As a part of this, we urge you to join with St. Francis Community Service and other local organizations in making a difference.

    • Rental and housing payments
    • Food and medication purchases
    • Delivery of essential items for those who cannot leave home
  1. Allow us to continue serving in this difficult environment, as we work to:
    • Help clients locate resources they need and address crises
    • Conduct remote bilingual counseling and tutoring sessions via video
    • Intercede in legal issues such as evictions, guardianships, and other matters
    • Assist with language interpretation for those who don’t speak English
