About Erwin Home

the Erwin Home was created by the will of New Britain philanthropist Cornelius Erwin in 1885, when its doors first opened to "worthy women of limited means" from the Greater New Britain area. Since then, literally thousands of women of all ages, races, beliefs and ways of life have taken advantage of the privacy, comfort and safety offered by its 65 apartments for individuals, and recently, the addition of 10 apartments for women with families.
