Join the Alliance

Founded in 1997, the Genesis Alliance is composed of over 600 women who support the mission of Genesis Women's Shelter to end family violence. The Genesis Alliance takes part in volunteering, education and community awareness to help us reach a larger audience in the greater Dallas area. Through hosting educational events, donation drives, and supporting special events, these members serve as ambassadors in the community and make our mission possible at no cost to clients.
The Alliance brings women together to help other women find a safe way out to the life they deserve. It takes all of us working together to make a difference.
It will take all of us as women working together to improve the world for ourselves and our daughters. Join the Alliance.
