Resource Lists Available

When people are struggling to make ends meet they may be in need of one type of assistance, but most often they are in need of acquiring multiple types. St. John’s Mercy Neighborhood Ministry has produced some resource lists that we hope will be used as tools to educate agency workers and distribute to their clients when referring them to seek additional help.

There are many resources available throughout the St. Louis area, but coordinating and accessing these services are difficult if agencies do not know what services are in their area.

The lists below will not be all-inclusive of the available services in the St. Louis area, but if your organization would like to be added, please contact the Neighborhood Ministry. Also, if your hours of operation, telephone number, etc. changes, please make us aware so we can keep the lists as up to date as possible.

To contact St. John’s Mercy Neighborhood Ministry call 314-865-0927 or email Cheryl Persons at Cheryl.Persons@mercy.net.
