My Sister's Place of Gainesville

Since 2000, My Sister’s Place shelter has been a beacon of hope and healing for women and their children experiencing homelessness, showering all who enter with God’s love.

Founded by Marty Owens, her dream was to open My Sister’s Place as a sanctuary and to provide a nurturing home, transportation assistance, nutritious meals and other basic necessities to the single women and mothers with children. While they are with us, we provide the tools and resources to help them to be in a better position when they leave than when they arrived.

My Sister’s Place restores hope by encouraging faith in Christ, developing life skills, and providing a haven for women and children experiencing homelessness.
