Our Mission
Our History
In 1991, the agency moved to a location in the uptown area of Pittsburgh and completed a major renovation project which provided for ten emergency shelter rooms and six bridge housing units. In 2001, Womanspace East, Inc. completed a newly built transitional housing development, which consists of ten (2) bedroom apartment units that housed an additional 10 women and 20 children. In 2016, Womanspace East, Inc. eliminated the transitional and bridge housing programs and expanded the emergency shelter to be able to provide shelter to intact families. WSE can provide emergency shelter for up to 26 families at any given time
