We specialize in caring for women and children

Women’s Connection Inc. (WCI) is a faith based 501(c)3 nonprofit located in Houston, Texas. At WCI we actively partner with other community members to address homelessness among women and children in the Houston area. We build transformational relationships by providing life-changing resources for those facing impossible hardships.

Our History

In 2009, visionary Monique Davis began her work with homeless women and children connecting them to local resources. As her efforts began to expand the number of women she helped, her network of organizations to assist these women began to grow as well. Then in 2016, Ms. Davis took a bold step and created the nonprofit Women Connections Incorporated. This was in response to the growing unprecedented need to help homeless women and children in the Houston, Texas area. Her organization’s passion - to empower women to overcome poverty; something she too had to overcome early on in her life.

“We must remember we all have encountered difficulties in our lives that we had to work through and God wants us to be an encouragement to others,” says Ms. Davis. By networking with various organizations, businesses and individuals, Ms. Davis was able to build a program that addressed the multiple barriers her clients faced. Such strong partnerships have been the catalyst of change for the women and children in WCI’s program.

Since its inception, WCI has worked to provide housing, food, job preparation and business skills, health and wellness education, spiritual formation, and access to financial education to over 500 women and children. This is just the beginning. Their future plans include purchasing an existing building to be able to house more women and children in need and to provide more extensive services.

WCI’s mission is to empower homeless women and children so that they are enabled to overcome hardships.

We know that through the transformational power of Christ we can change the standard of living for women and children, ending the cycle of poverty in their lives.

What Our Partners Are Saying

“I met the president of this non-profit through my efforts to help the homeless of my area. I have met some of her volunteers as well. All of the people involved with this organization are hard working and dedicated to their cause.

I work with the president coordinating help for her domestic violence victims as well as my homeless people. She and some of her volunteers cook for some of my homeless people. I often pick up donated items for her organization. It is a real team effort.

I know the president works extremely hard to help her clients get their lives turned around. This non-profit is a great example of how non-profits can change the lives of people.”
