#OnetoNone
Domestic abuse is a prevalent societal epidemic that affects individuals of every race, gender, religion, sexuality, orientation or culture. While abuse can happen to anyone it is predominately associated with women. In fact,
1 in every 4 women will experience abuse in their lifetime.
In Texas, that number is 1 in 3.
Experiencing abuse can feel isolating. It is important to remember that you are not alone and there are resources, people, communities and services dedicated to helping those in abusive homes. There is help and there is hope.

Our Purpose
💜 Who is Genesis?
Genesis Women's Shelter was founded to give women escaping domestic violence a safe place to get back on their feet.
💜 What is Domestic Violence?
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. It is a pattern of violent behavior that can feel stressful to navigate and dangerous to leave. Remember: change takes time, everyone’s journey is unique and she is the expert on her own safety!
💜 What kind of services does Genesis offer?
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.
