York Street Project is a community non-profit organization with a mission to take on the highly visible factors of Education, Housing, Job Readiness and Childcare that block women from creating self-fulfilled, self-sufficient lives. At the same time, we also take on the less visible factors, healing the hidden damages that the cycle of homelessness perpetuates. Every year our programs give nearly 300 women and children the tools they need to begin their journey toward a life of self-sufficiency. If you desire to be a part of York Street Project Team, please consider the following openings we have!
