Mission

Care, Comfort and Heal

What We Do

As Philadelphia's first transitional housing program for women and children, Drueding Center has developed a comprehensive program that meets the needs of both generations of our young families. Our services span a wide spectrum, including case management, clinical counseling, life skills education, and concrete needs like our Green Light Pantry featuring healthy fresh choices. While mothers work on employment and educational goals, their children are cared for on-site in a licensed child-care center.

We acknowledge that healing takes time and preserve our families' achievements through an extensive After Care program, providing an additional 7 years of follow-up support. Simply put, it works; 100% of our families actively engaged in After Care maintain permanent housing three years after exiting our program.
