My Sisters’ Place (MSP) has been serving the women, children and families of Greater Hartford for over 40 years. In the 2023 fiscal year alone,  MSP provided services to over 875 men, women and children! MSP's many programs have one common goal: to break the cycle of homelessness while offering those in our care options for permanent, safe and affordable housing. MSP addresses existing homelessness by providing supportive housing and critical support services by qualified, compassionate staff while also addressing issues of equity and inclusion through programming such as Housing Mobility Counseling. All of our programs work to support our participants in achieving greater self-determination, independence and stability.
