Pennsauken, NJ

A Mother’s Message It is 10 years since Christopher left us. During this time, I have had many opportunities to share with people who are coping with similar stories. One unfortunate element we have in common is the shame and silence that surrounds substance abuse. It prevents people from getting help sooner... or at all. Upon Christopher’s death, my nephew, Ed, said, “We let one slip through the cracks. How could we do that?” SILENCE did that! Not talking…not reaching out for help. Because of the silence, families do not realize how common this problem is.Substance abuse knows no socioeconomic boundary and it is not caused by bad parenting. Genesis Centers can help prevent more tragedies like Christopher – but people need to reach out for the help. Christopher is gone, we cannot change that. However, WE can facilitate change. We can do away with the shame and silence families struggling with this horrible demon bear. We HAVE something to talk about. By supporting Genesis Centers, we CAN fight the silence…. so no one else slips through the cracks. — Yvonne Schultes Riley, Christopher’s Mom

From the humble beginnings of a tiny office in Collingswood, Genesis

Counseling Centers was born with the mission "to give people a place to

talk, to treat them with respect, and they will grow". Over 30 years and

three locations later, Genesis is still providing people a place to talk. This past year has been a year of growth and change for Genesis

Counseling Centers. Gabe Guerrieri, the founder of Genesis, has stepped

down as Executive Director. The Board of Directors proudly announced

that Barry Bailey would take the reins as the new Executive Director. His

goal- to continue Gabe's original mission, as well as navigate Genesis

through the complex business environment of today. We are celebrating our 10th year of this 5k Run/Walk Event. In those

10 years, the Sponsors of Walk the Talk have ensured that Genesis can

continue important community programs such as:

DUI / IDRC Programs

Early Intervention Program

United Way Case Management Program

Drug Court

Camden County Jail and Second Chance Program

Student Assistance Program

Employee Assistance Programs

YOU can help change lives
