Since 1979, Bethesda Project has been providing emergency shelter, housing and supportive services for thousands of individuals experiencing homelessness in Philadelphia. By offering a home and safe environment at each of its 14 sites throughout Philadelphia, men and women experiencing homelessness can stabilize and regain their dignity and self-worth. 

From outreach and engagement to emergency shelters to permanent housing residences with supportive services, its locations create a Housing First continuum of care for Philadelphia’s most vulnerable. At Bethesda Project, we meet men and women where they are, providing case management to help them achieve their highest personal potential. 

Now, 40 years since its inception, Bethesda Project remains committed to its initial calling — to find and care for the abandoned poor and to be family with those who have none.
