Wellspring

Empowering Women

Wellspring is a daytime resource center just for women in the heart of downtown Green Bay. The center provides visitors a peaceful, caring place to connect with other women who may be facing similar issues and difficulties, especially when their lives get very challenging. For many women in transition, Wellspring serves as another family, a place to belong, a friend away from home.

Heal and Become Empowered

Within a compassionate and accepting atmosphere of women of all cultures, age, economic statuses and religious backgrounds, Wellspring strives to elevate the mind, body and spirit. We foster an atmosphere of dignity and respect through networking, empathetic listening, and mentoring. Wellspring offers meaningful resources to help women grow, renew and become empowered.

Services Available at the Micah Center

Wellspring is staffed with 2 full-time Case Managers who provide advocacy and support. Each shelter guest is required to meet with their assigned Case Manager to assess their barriers and create goals to overcome those barriers. Although the ultimate goal is to obtain housing, smaller goals are sometimes set prior to focusing on this. For example, if an individual does not currently have income, employment options may need to be explored prior to seeking housing options. In addition, referrals to community resources may occur at this time to assist.

Our computer lab allows visitors an opportunity to learn basic computer skills, create employment materials, apply for jobs, write papers for school and search for housing. Printing is available.

Wellspring creates a sense of belonging. Combining resources with a drop-in center feel, Wellspring aims to meet women where they’re at and provide all of the resources and support to assist in their transition to self-sufficiency.

Wellspring hosts several community partners on-site each month offering an array of services focused on physical wellbeing, mental health, dental services, hygiene services, AODA counseling, housing and much more. Contact a case manager for more information.

Women can use the Wellspring address to receive mail at this location if they do not have a permanent address.
