York Street Project

York Street Project is a Jersey City organization serving women, children, and families experiencing poverty, homelessness, or other instability. Founded in 1989, its mission combines housing, childcare, education, counseling, case management, and skills development to support greater stability and self-sufficiency.

Its programs include supportive emergency shelter and transitional housing through St. Joseph’s Home, affordable and supportive housing, early childhood education, and services that help families address barriers to independent living. Support may include mental health services, childcare, transportation assistance, life-skills workshops, utility assistance, rental assistance, and connections to community resources.
