Jesse’s House Inc., is a 501(c) 3, founded in 1998, they identified a need for an emergency shelter in Forsyth County for adolescent girls who were experiencing abuse and neglect. The Larry Morris family answered the call by donating a 2-bedroom home in honor of their father, Jesse Morris. With a house in place and generous contributions from the community, Jesse’s House began operation. In the past 23 years they have seen tremendous growth in response to the changing needs in our community. The now have a new shelter that has the capacity to serve 12 girls, and the average length of stay in this past year was 11.4 months.
