Who We Are

Our Mission is to enhance the quality and dignity of individual lives by helping to break the cycle of homelessness

​Matthew 25:40

Genesis House has served the Siloam Springs community for over 25 years, with the help of local business, regional organizations, and caring folks like you. We’ve been able to do some amazing things for people doing their best to overcome obstacles to self-sufficiency! We receive over 2,500 guests per year, many young families and children. Genesis House helps folks in important ways:

• Safe Day Shelter, with Shower and Laundry facilities
• Hot Meals and Beverages
• Mail Drop, Telephone and Fax Services
• One-on-one casework and referrals - employment opportunities, government and other non-profit assistance
• Temporary motel stays and rent assistance to avoid evictions (dependent on funding and eligibility requirements)
