Emma Norton's mission is to provide transformational housing for women and families on their journey of recovery.
About us
Emma Norton Services is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization actively combating poverty in our communities by partnering with women, individuals, and families who are homeless and experiencing the additional challenges of mental and/or chemical illness, or a chronic health condition. ENS provides affordable housing, basic needs, and support services in an environment that fosters stability and encourages personal growth. Emma Norton Services has two locations to serve a diverse community. Emma Norton Residence in St. Paul, Minn. is home to 50 individual women and Emma’s Place in Maplewood, Minn. is home to 13 families with single parents and 3+ kids. In 2017, Emma Norton added Scattered-Site Housing to their programs in an effort to continue growing to support more women and families in need of safe, affordable housing. This new housing program provides wrap-around support services to clients in Ramsey County as they work towards long-term success out in the community. Each year, Emma Norton Services helps over 300 people by providing a supportive community, resources, and personal development opportunities while they worked to build a better life without having to worry about basic needs like a safe place to sleep.

Today we held the coat/winter gear distribution event at Restoring Waters! We had so many hats and scarves that we needed 3 tables to lay them all out, and that was still barely enough room! Restoring Waters residents and a handful of Scattered Site clients came though today to get their winter gear. We distributed about 30 coats today, as well as gloves, hats, and scarves! We also received some generous financial donations to support our winter gear acquisitions, so clients who were unable to find a coat in their size today will be getting one very soon. Thank you to everyone who supported our winter gear/coat drive this year!
