Mission Statement

The mission of Abbys House is to provide emergency and long-term housing, as well as woman-centered advocacy and support services to homeless, battered and low-income women, with or without children. In addition, we provide education to the community about the issues with which our guests and residents struggle each day. We fulfill our mission by empowering women to lead self-directed lives filled with dignity and hope. By offering warm hospitality, we seek to be in relationships of caring and support. In naming the oppression that exists in women's lives, we strive to create change.
