Women's Gathering Place strives to provide a safe community for women, warm meals, sofas to take naps, toiletries and clothing, a washer and a dryer, music, activities, and open hearts and ears to support. Many of the women who come to Women's Gathering Place are homeless, have been unemployed, and have experienced trauma, abuse, or domestic violence. Yet at WGP, a woman without a home can find the support of other women, connect to vital services, and find respite, spiritual renewal, and joy when there is nowhere else to go but the street.
