Dignity’s mission is to break the cycle of homelessness and poverty that confronts low-income families and individuals in the City of Philadelphia.  Dignity Housing breaks the cycle of homelessness by providing safe, decent affordable housing, promoting self-sufficiency, and creating opportunities.  

Established in 1988, Dignity Housing is the first housing and supportive services program in the nation to be founded and guided by homeless people and activists.  Since its inception, Dignity has provided both quality affordable housing and supportive services to thousands of people – primarily single African American women and their children.  Dignity has cultivated an individualized services approach to meeting the complex needs of homeless individuals and families.  Dignity has been recognized for neighborhood preservation and affordable housing development, and currently manages an inventory of 60 units of affordable housing concentrated in Northwest Philadelphia.
