Established by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace in 1989, York Street Project has been dedicated to breaking the cycle of poverty for women and children. We help our families unlearn the lessons of hopelessness and helplessness created by a lifetime of poverty.

Programs: 

St. Joseph’s Home: A safe and structured living environment for single mothers and their children that guides and supports them as they transition to new independent lives.

The Nurturing Place: A year-round licensed early childhood development center for children from 4 months to 6 years of age while their mothers are at work or school.

Why Work For Us?: 

At the York Street Project, we take on the highly-visible factors of Education, Housing and Childcare that block our women from creating self-fulfilled, self-sufficient lives. At the same time, we take on the less visible factors: healing the hidden damage that the cycle exacts. Working with our brave women, we help them take on unlearning the lessons of hopelessness and helplessness. Take on restoring destroyed self-esteem. Take on addressing the insidious developmental delays in their children.
