St. Patrick Center celebrates 25 years!
1983-2008

“I feel so privileged to be associated with St. Patrick Center. I saw an immediate homeless problem that needed to be solved and feel I was really just an instrument of what God wanted done in this community.” 
Edith Cunnane, Founder & Director Emeritus
