HELP USA was awarded a contract to operate the Brownsville Women's Center in 1996.  The Brownsville Women's Center provides dormitory-style transitional housing for 66 homeless single women with an emphasis on employment. 

The program philosophy is based in the multidisciplinary team approach with the resident being an active member of the team.  The synergistic combination of therapeutic, educational, and supportive services provides a launching point for residents to rebuild their lives.  Ongoing support helps maintain self-reliance. 

Each year, the Brownsville Women's Center exceeds the housing placement targets established by the Department of Homeless Services.
