The YWCA provides a highly structured four-phase residential program for homeless women in recovery from substance abuse. In 2012, THRP provided approximately 9,300 nights of safe shelter.  The typical client entering their program is unemployed and without resources.  She has very little contact with her family and has likely lost custody of her children due to her history of substance abuse.  Their case managers immediately begin working with new clients to assess their needs and develop personal goals for them.  Clients create an Individual Development Plan and they review their progress with their case managers.  The overall goal for the THRP clients is that they will comply with all program guidelines, remain sober, and complete the program.  During this time, clients are attending daily NA AA meetings, meeting with their sponsors, struggling to achieve maintain sobriety and seeking employment.  Therefore, it is imperative that the YWCA provide them with the essentials such as food, clothing, personal care items, counseling and recovery educational materials. 

Mission Statement: The mission of the YWCA is to eliminate racism and empower women.
