CHANGING THE LIVES OF WOMEN SINCE 1914
Mary Elizabeth Inn seeks to continue the legacy
of our founder by providing a safe place to live
free of violence.
Having remained true to this mission since our opening,
Mary Elizabeth Inn remains San Francisco's
only affordable and safe housing option for many women.
"What Can I do to help, if Money Were No Object?"
That is the question Mrs. Lizzie Glide posed to a
group of women in San Francisco, and they
responded with the desire for a safe and
affordable place to live. Mrs. Glide proceeded
to use her personal resources to build a
residential facility for women in need.
Our Legacy Continues
Established for the sole purpose of serving
women in need, Mary Elizabeth Inn continues
its mission to end the cycle of poverty for
homeless and abused women by providing
affordable housing and supportive services in
two historic buildings in San Francisco.
OUR MISSION
To end the cycle of poverty and homelessness for women in the bay area and empowering women across all life's stages to achieve self-sufficiency and security.
