                        Inspiring the Courage to Hope.
                  Teaching the Skills to Cope.

     These words are not just The Women's Center's motto, but they also
tell the story of how the Center helps the thousands of women, men and
children of all ages. ethnic and economic backgrounds who come to
The Women's Center seeking hope, emotional healing, solutions to
family crisis, and help to find a job or a path to a better life. The
serious problems are devastating --rape and child sexual abuse,
unemployment, wages too low to keep a family together, illiteracy,
deep depression, and desperate situations created by family violence
and poverty.
     The Center works with these individuals to help them muster the
power and courage to confront crisis, triumph over desperate situations,
and build new skills and strategies that will improve their lives.
     Since its founding in 1979, The Women's Center has been a social
service entrepreneur, creating community services that are now considered
critical but did not exist before the Center pioneered their development.
It has become one of the most comprehensive rape crisis and victim
services programs in the Southwest, a leader in employment programs for
adults, and a constant source of support for women and families in crisis
and transition. The Women's Center helps over 80,000 people annually solve
problems that - without help - can emotionally paralyze and destabilize families.

The Women's Center has three main programs:

Rape Crisis and Victim Services

Employment Solutions

Counseling Services

"Inspiring the Courage to Hope. Teaching the Skills to Cope." is our motto about helping people to see a different future for themselves, helping them know they can achieve that future, and about supporting people as they gain confidence and skill to move toward that future. No matter what terrible thing has happened to them, The Women's Center knows that people can overcome and ultimately triumph.
