Our Purpose
đź’ś Who is Genesis?
Genesis Women's Shelter was founded to give women escaping domestic violence a safe place to get back on their feet.

It isn't always physical.
Abuse comes in many forms, including verbal, emotional, financial, sexual or spiritual. All have the same goal - to exert control over another person and diminish their confidence & independence.

Genesis is proud to provide a variety of services to women and children seeking an abuse-free life at no cost and with no strings attached. Our services are designed to help each client in their own unique situations, and our dedicated staff walks alongside them throughout their journey to hope and healing.
