At Crossroads for Women, we believe women can recover from trauma and painful experiences; women have the ability to heal and move on with their lives; and everyone deserve new starts and second chances.

We provide housing and trauma-informed therapeutic services with a gender-responsive approach for women across seven domains: legal, independent living, medical, substance abuse, mental health, vocational, and family.

Our specialized model is based on acknowledging the primary importance of relationships in the lives of women, and addressing the challenges of their pasts, presents, and futures.


Transitional Housing

Women exiting incarceration are housed in one of our two transitional housing programs: Maya’s Place in Albuquerque and The Pavilions in Los Lunas. Each 26-bed therapeutic community offers safe, structured living for women emerging from incarceration. Clients receive trauma-informed therapeutic services, including: case management, family support, vocational services, and groups focused on recovery and mental health.

Permanent Supportive Housing

We also offer permanent supportive housing to homeless women with co-occurring disorders through the Bernalillo County Community Connections Housing Program. Women are placed in safe apartments and homes in Albuquerque while receiving wrap-around services, including: case management, family support, vocational services, and groups focused on recovery and mental health.

Peer-on-Peer Support Services (POPSS)

Recovery is a lifetime endeavor. The POPSS program creates a continued support system for women who graduate from a Crossroads for Women housing program. Peer Support Specialists help graduates complete long term goals and utilize coping skills needed to maintain life recovery.
