Program accomplishments

  • Housing & supportive services helped families and individuals overcome homelessness through affordable housing and supportive services to empower families to stabilize their lives, build new skills, decrease their utilization of emergency services, and keep families united and safe. While each program has specific eligibility criteria & requirements, all programs are united in philosophy, core services & service delivery methods that equip & empower participants to achieve foundational stability (i.e., stable housing), improve their economic resources & increase their self-sufficiency. They link affordable housing to customized support services; use the whole family approach; operate collaboratively; are case management-driven & participant centered; employ outcome-based evaluation; research-based tools, strategies, and best practices. YWCA's transitional housing program (THP), established in 1984, creates a path out of homelessness for single parent families with moderate to high barriers to housing stability. A family centered program, THP provides life changing case management, advocacy, training & support that helps parents achieve stable housing and supports the needs of their children through direct service and connection to community resources. Families spend up to 36 months stabilizing their lives & building skills while living in a YWCA owned/operated transitional housing site. Participants that complete a year are eligible for a Section 8 Rental Voucher which helps them maintain affordable housing in the community & reduces the chance of repeat homelessness. Permanent supportive housing (PSH) serves one & two parent families identified as having the highest and most complex barriers to housing stability, including chronic or long-term homelessness, a diagnosed physical/mental disability &/or chronic illness such as HIV/AIDS. Families work to achieve stable housing & independent living while receiving support through case management, coaching & connection to community resources. Families reside in YWCA owned/operated housing or housing in the community. Families are eligible to access a Section 8 Voucher after a year in the program. They participate if they choose, provided they continue to meet eligibility requirements. PSH has served the community since 1995.

All training courses are complemented by a strong focus on career readiness, financial literacy, and essential professional soft skills development. Together, these services equip participants not only to secure employment, but to transition from earning a living wage to achieving long-term economic mobility and financial well-being.Advanced equitable access to career pathways by delivering culturally responsive workforce development services to individuals and families navigating systemic barriers to employment, with a continued focus on communities most impacted by economic inequities. Supported participants in transitioning from unemployment or underemployment into career-sustaining employment, positioning them to move from short-term financial stability toward long-term economic mobility and well-being. Fostered employer and community partnerships to create clearer pathways to employment, improve job placement opportunities, and ensure training remains responsive to labor market demands.

  • Youth development programs empower young people to build bright futures. Programming helps young people affirm who they are, and supports them in building leadership skills, employment readiness, and academic success. YW Stride helps young women of color ages 17-24 who are transitioning from foster care by helping them secure stable housing and navigate relationships, resources, and systems. The Young Women's Initiative of MN is a public-private partnership between the Women's Foundation of MN and the State of MN.

Developed a part-time position for an alumnus to be a co-facilitator for the 2025- 2026 program year, enhancing the program and leadership development of the YWI. In collaboration with our partners, we have engaged eight community organizations that are making a significant impact on advocacy work, providing workshops for the YWI participants to learn from.
