The Vincentian Studies Institute of the United States, founded in 1979, is sponsored by the ten provinces of the Congregation of the Mission (the Vincentians) and the Company of Daughters of Charity in the United States. The Institute's mission is to promote and sustain a living interest in the historical, spiritual, and missionary heritage of the Vincentian Family following in the footsteps of Saint Vincent de Paul (1581-1660) and Saint Louise de Marillac (1591-1660). The Institute publishes a journal entitled "Vincentian Heritage," and also sponsors the publication of a wide variety of translations and original works in the Vincentian tradition. The organization periodically offers continuing educational opportunities and symposia. In collaboration with the DePaul University bookstores, the Institute offers a wide selection of Vincentian Heritage books, magazines, and artwork.

The headquarters of the Vincentian Studies Institute are located in the John T. Richardson Library of DePaul University, Room 412.
