The economic security, safety, and health of women and families are core to YWCA Jamestown’s mission. Our services strive for social justice, in the home and the community. We provide safe transitional housing, create places to build strong women leaders, and advocate for equal rights.
 
Transitions Supportive Housing provides safe and affordable housing and service-enriched case management to women and children who are homeless or at risk of being homeless. The program offers opportunities for residents to identify their capabilities and develop the new skills necessary to be successful at healthy independent living

At the YWCA Jamestown, we know we cannot do this work alone.
