At Alpha Community Services, we address the basic human needs for shelter, dignity and self sufficiency by providing a range of housing opportunities and supportive services.

Alpha Community Services became a branch of the Central Connecticut Coast YMCA in 1992 and for the past 19 years our community has come to rely on us to provide a sense of community, hope and a safe place to belong to a growing population of homeless men, women and children.  While many of our residents may not have any other support networks, the Y’s housing gave 892 individuals, including more than 400 children, a sense of community and a place to belong last year.

We welcome your support as we continue this important service and encourage you to become involved with the YMCA.
