We’ve been there too…

We are a women-powered community, based in New Haven Connecticut. Our mission is to use peer mentorship and skill-building workshops to support women facing drug and alcohol addiction, homelessness, reentry into society, and other challenges.

With the generous support of grants from The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven, The Aids Healthcare Foundation, Yale Community for New Haven Fund,  individual donations, and a network of volunteers, we have been able to carry out our mission in new and creative ways:

  • Our Women’s Empowerment Workshops have moved online and are held virtually on Zoom every Thursday evening. Please visit the Empowerment Lounge section of this website for more info.

  • We’ve also been giving out wellness packs to homeless women and men on the New Haven Green and in other locations around town , and delivering family wellness packs to other women that we serve.

If you need help or would like to get involved, please join or community.
