North Texas Giving Day is officially underway - early giving is open now! This year, support Genesis as we provide life-changing services to children who have had to carry the weight of trauma endured in an abusive home.

When a child experiences abuse, directly or indirectly, the trauma will stay with them, often for the rest of their lives. We know that 40% of boys who witness abuse will one day become abusers themselves, and 50% of girls will become involved in abusive relationships when they are older.

The good news? Genesis stands ready 24/7 to provide safety planning, emergency shelter, warm meals, safe housing, Master’s-level therapy, onsite schooling, daycare and more to women and their children.

No matter the contribution, when you donate to Genesis for North Texas Giving Day you provide immediate help to survivors of domestic violence. Each donation is a reminder to the women and children we serve that there is a community of supporters on their side. Together, we can ease the burden no child should ever have to bear. Donate today through 9/17 at www.northtexasgivingday.org/organization/Genesis-Womens-Shelter-And-Support.

In the conclusion of our Understanding Fear series on Genesis the Podcast, host Maria MacMullin is joined by CEO of Genesis Jan Langbein to shine a light on abusers using fear as a weapon of control, and how that choice of weapon can inspire life-changing courage in spite of fear. We hear real stories from clients who have bravely walked into Genesis, even still afraid, and took those first few steps towards healing. Also discussed is the ways in which community may dismiss a survivor's fear and what that means in the eyes of the survivor.

Listen to this episode or the rest of the Understanding Fear series at https://www.buzzsprout.com/1831684/episodes/19349219-understanding-fear-part-4-courage-in-spite-of-fear or wherever you get your podcasts!

If you are someone experiencing fear as a weapon of control - it is not your fault, it is not okay and you are deserving of feeling safe and secure in your life. To speak with Genesis staff about our services, call or text our 24-hour helpline at 214.946.HELP (4357). 💗
