About
Open Doors of Western New York is a dedicated organization committed to empowering women who have survived domestic violence, sex trafficking, stalking and other forms of trauma. Our mission is to support their healing, recovery, and independence, providing a pathway to a brighter future. We recognize that true recovery extends beyond immediate shelter; it requires a comprehensive approach to holistic support that transforms pain into power.
Our long-term transitional housing program creates a safe and nurturing environment where women can heal and rebuild their lives. In addition to secure accommodations, we offer life skills training, Counseling services, and access to essential resources. Our programs are thoughtfully designed to equip women with the tools they need for success, fostering resilience and self-sufficiency. Through workshops, Job training Initiatives, Support groups, Educational programs, Advocacy and Empowerment programs we empower women to develop their skills, regain confidence, and achieve independence. At Open Doors of WNY, we are dedicated to transforming lives, ensuring that every woman who enters our doors leaves empowered and ready to thrive.
We believe all women can embrace who they are,
can define their future, and can change the world.
