About Rosie's Place

Rosie's Place, founded in 1974 as the first women’s shelter in the United States, is located in Boston, Massachusetts. It offers a safe and nurturing environment for poor and homeless women, allowing them to maintain dignity and seek opportunities. Guests appreciate the quality of services and the generous support from advocates. Many have shared positive experiences with staff members who are knowledgeable and caring, helping women transition into better lifestyles. However, some reviews highlight challenges with the front desk staff, noting instances of unkindness and a lack of patience. These experiences can overshadow the positive impact of the shelter’s resources. Despite these concerns, Rosie's Place is still seen as a trusted friend and a valuable resource for women in need. The organization has evolved to meet the changing demographics of its guests, reflecting the diversity of the community it serves. While the shelter provides important services, there is a call for improvement in staff training and customer service to enhance the overall experience for those seeking assistance. Despite mixed experiences, many visitors express gratitude for the support received and the positive changes seen over the years. Rosie's Place remains committed to its mission, offering a vital lifeline to women facing difficult circumstances.
