The YMCA Emergency Family Shelter in Connecticut

The YMCA is proud of its role in providing a continuum of care to individuals and families who have become homeless. We work hard to utilize our resources to efficiently help those who find themselves in need – many from circumstances outside of their own control.  Alpha Community Services operates the only Family Emergency Shelter in Bridgeport, Connecticut’s largest city. In 2010 we housed 196 families in our shelter, including 300 children.
