AWAC- Association Advocating for Women and Community is a non-profit organization that opened in 1994, with the vision to provide safe and supportive shelter for street-involved women and female youth. Over the years we began to see the need for our services to expand. With the growing problem of homelessness in our community we created the Housing First, Outreach and Housing Readiness programs. Our Housing First and Outreach programs are available to both men and women and at this time our Shelter, Support Recovery, and Housing Readiness programs remain women only. All of our programs at AWAC provide clients with the opportunity to rebuild their lives through support from a non-judgmental, trauma informed approach. It is our goal to help move both men and women from homelessness to independent living by offering various levels of supports throughout the different stages of housing.
