The River

Since opening our doors on October 4, 2004, The River has served over 500 women and children in need. Many are without support networks and are at severe risk of falling between the cracks into greater poverty, homelessness, and desperation.
The River has several core programs developed to meet the basic and supportive needs of the women and children we serve. For some women, The River is a stepping stone to self-sufficiency. For most women, The River assists in meeting basic needs on a daily basis. Guests value The River for its comprehensive and unique programs abd for the compassionate and respectful manner in which they are offered. We believe that every woman has gifts and strengths that she can build on to be successful. It is our hope that The River can bring new life!
