WRC History

The Women’s Resource Center was incorporated as a not-for-profit organization in September of 2003. Our initial group of women, who themselves had experienced struggles with addictions, abusive relationships, divorce, and trauma, organized to reach out to other women giving hope, support, and knowledge of resources and connections that had worked for them. In 2007 we served more than 2000 people.

Today WRC is helping 60 families a month — and that number is growing. It is through community partnerships and generous donations that we are able to equip families with new skills to help break the cycle of domestic violence, addiction, joblessness and homelessness. We empower individuals to become active participants in their healing process, strengthening families by teaching responsibility and promoting self-sufficiency.

The Women’s Resource Center is a 501(c)(3) organization supported by the grants, private donations and in-kind support of individuals and organizations. Services we can refer families to include:

• Budgeting/Financial Skills

• Counseling

• Emergency Food and Clothes

• Employment
