STAR House is a crisis nursery which exists to provide a temporary home-away-from-home for children and supportive services to uplift and strengthen the entire family.
Our Board President Sarah Anderson was interviewed on Fox 9 in December!
"We were full at our very first weekend. [...] There is a huge need in the community."
-Sarah Ellefson
“I do think STAR House is really unique in a lot of ways,” [Sarah] Ellefson said. “We try really hard to be culturally responsive and trauma informed.”
"We are a type of child care but our mission is family
support through their children,” [Sarah] Ellefson said.
We wanted to highlight one of our favorites by Lizzy:
I'm not sure how to start,
words that create art,
but I know how to rhyme.
Hydraulic slime.
