This nonprofit organization provides shelter and affordable housing, as well as advocacy and support services, to homeless, battered, and low-income women, with or without children. Founded in 1976, Abby's House overnight shelter was one of the first shelters in the United States for women; since then, they've helped more than 16,000 women and their children.
