For over 115 years, WomenRising has been helping women and their families achieve self-sufficiency and live safe, productive, and fulfilling lives, through social services, economic development, and advocacy services. WomenRising is the foremost community- based organization for women in Hudson County. For this reason, I decided to partner with this non-profit and design a multi-functional center for visitors of the park and for women to have access to crisis counseling and healing support groups. The Bloom Center will help those in need of jobs, safety from domestic violence, freedom from homelessness, and safe lives for their children. This project will be giving women and their families in Jersey City a safe and accessable place to seek help and support.
