Teen Services
Each year, the YWCA’s Teen Services helps more than 200 teenage mothers navigate the challenges of young adulthood and parenting. Through counseling, case management, home visits, social activities and career direction, teen mothers further their education and secure the work skills and opportunities that will lead to a successful future for them and their children.

Housing Services
Through our Housing Services, the YWCA offers residential programs for single women, women with children and families who need a safe and secure home from which to build their strength and continue their progress. The YWCA provides emergency housing for women in crisis and supportive housing for women with special needs. 

Supportive Housing is designed to promote independent living in a supervised setting for individuals who have completed another course of treatment and are making the transition to independent living. They are for individuals who either require a long-term supportive environment following care in another type of residential service for an undetermined length of stay, or who are in need of a transitional living environment prior to establishing independent community living. The program is licensed by the NYS Office of Alcohol and Substance Abuse.

Other Housing services include rapid re-housing solutions for the homeless and at-risk for homelessness and permanent, affordable housing for women working to maintain a healthy and productive life for themselves and their children. Counseling and education in trauma informed care, life skills, parenting, and job readiness, support our residents each step of the way on their journey to success.

Racial Justice Services
We all belong. What diminishes one, diminishes all. A critical focus in strengthening the lives of women we serve is addressing racial barriers. Their chances for long-term success are enhanced when we build community awareness of how racism continues to impede their progress.
