OUR MISSION
Emphasizing the dignity of every human person, Providence House affirms its commitment to provide shelter and support to homeless, abused and formerly incarcerated women and their children in a hospitable, non-violent, compassionate atmosphere. We also strive to address the causes of injustice and work towards the full and fruitful participation in the community of those with whom we share life.

How We Do It
Founded in 1979, Providence House is a not-for-profit organization which accomplishes its mission one family at a time, through our programs and services. These include transitional residences, transitional apartments, parole resource centers and permanent housing. Not only do we provide shelter to people in need, but we strive to break their cycle of homelessness/return to incarceration through the values, skills and relationships that are established during their time with us.
