PPCS Programs
Housing, shelter, and support for lifelong stability.
PPCS operates programs across St. Louis that meet people where they are and connect them with housing, care, and long-term support.
Our Programs
Five programs from three sites throughout St. Louis.
Founded in 1981 as a winter emergency shelter in Soulard, Peter & Paul Community Services now operates multiple programs that provide emergency shelter, supportive housing, transitional housing, and quality-of-life support.
Two programs are located at the new Community Campus, where PPCS serves clients alongside additional programs managed by partner agencies.
PPCS walks with people experiencing homelessness on their journey to lifelong stability.
