YWCA Housing
Everyone needs a place to call home - a safe haven and shelter
from the storm; a place to settle and be nurtured. The YW has
designed several services that address this need, and help
women and their families find their place in the world.
Residency Program This program offers low cost,
one-bedroom apartments to women who cannot find affordable or
appropriate housing on the open market. The YW also provides
case management to residents who need assistance. 48 apartments
are available, to apply Please

Transitional
Housing This program was created for homeless families making
the difficult transition from living in an emergency shelter to
becoming economically self-sufficient. Families are permitted
to live at the YW for up to 18 months. 16 apartments are devoted
to Transitional Housing.
YW Homes Launched in 1999 to address the critical
shortage of quality, affordable housing in Jefferson County, YW
homes will be creating more housing for low to middle income families.
YW Homes also provides pre-qualification services for financing
of homes. Over 400 individual contacts were made in the first nine
months of operation.Please
