St. Paul Healing Center

Many of our activities are held at the St. Paul Healing Center. Minnesota is the home of CVT’s founding, and much of our work continues from this state. The team at the St. Paul Healing Center is a group of caring professionals dedicated to supporting you.

If you are interested in services, the first step is to come to our walk-in social work clinic. You will meet with a social worker or a social work student to talk about your needs and learn about community resources and our services. We are closed on U.S. federal holidays. If you speak a language not listed here, we will obtain an interpreter for you. Call 612-436-4840 to confirm hours or language availability.
