Mission Statement
The mission of Kearah's Place Inc. is to provide transitional housing and support services to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking.
About This Cause
The purpose of Kearah's Place Inc. is to provide transitional housing and support services to victims of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking to empower men and women into becoming established, accomplished individuals striving to reach their goals and seeking to obtain a better life toward self-sufficiency. Kearah's Place was named after the late Kearah Bryant, sister of the founder, J.L. Bryant. Kearah was diagnosed at the age of 5 with cancer. At the age of 7, Kearah sadly passed away. Always wondering, what she would have done with her life if she were still alive- Kearah's Place was born. Since founding in 2013, survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking in Kearah’s Place evolve and transition throughout the program in three key stages- the Caterpillar, Cocoon, and the Butterfly Stage. The Caterpillar Stage first takes place when a survivor contacts Kearah's Place to receive assistance. In this stage, the staff of Kearah’s Place assess the needs of the survivor. The Cocoon Stage represents the survivor’s development into becoming successful where a continuum of services are offered such as transitional housing, searches for permanent housing, a 24-hr crisis hotline, life skill training, one-on-one counseling, support groups, case management, opportunities to further education in receiving a GED or High School Diploma, court advocacy services, victim advocacy services such as crisis intervention and safety planning, healthcare services, resume writing development, workforce readiness, employment referrals, as well as transportation. Lastly, the Butterfly Stage represents the final stage where a survivor graduates from the program and enters into permanent housing. Kearah’s Place strives to help survivors of domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault, and stalking become reestablished and restored.
