The YWCA Union County’s Emergency Shelter Program provides a safe, comfortable environment for women and children in need of immediate safety. The shelter is in an undisclosed location, and staffed 24/7 by caring and compassionate Shelter Advocates.
Women and their children can stay for up to 90 days.
The Emergency Shelter program provides food, shelter, counseling and case management, support groups, safety planning, and connects clients with resources in the community. Shelter Advocates provide assistance with seeking employment or education, financial and legal needs, applying for documentation papers, and housing search assistance. In addition, the program offers services for children including trauma-informed play and other activities. Services are provided in English and Spanish, with an emphasis on culturally competency.
