Crossroads Rhode Island is the state's leading provider of housing and related services to those experiencing homelessness.

Founded in 1894 as the Travelers Aid Committee of the YWCA to help vulnerable women traveling to Providence for work, Crossroads has been serving those in need for more than 130 years.

Our mission has since evolved to help those experiencing homelessness secure stable homes.
