KIANA'S HOUSE

Welcome to Kiana’s House

Since opening its doors on February 15, 2024, Kiana’s House has been a beacon of hope for children in crisis. This transitional home offers a safe, nurturing environment for foster children as they navigate one of the most challenging times in their lives. Located in Clarksville, TN, Kiana’s House is more than just a shelter—it’s a sanctuary of comfort and care.

Impacting Generations, One Child at a Time!

Honoring Kiana’s Legacy

Kiana’s House was established in memory of Kiana Long, a remarkable young woman whose love for children was unmatched. Her passion for making a difference lives on in every meal served, every bed made, and every comforting word spoken within these walls. Through this home, her legacy continues to shine, providing foster children with the love and care she so deeply believed in.

Meeting Essential Needs
At Kiana’s House, children are provided with the essentials they need to thrive:

  • Hot Meals: Nutritious and comforting meals served daily.
  • Clothing & Hygiene Products: Ensuring every child feels clean, confident, and cared for.
  • A Safe Place to Call Home: Offering stability and security during uncertain times.

To protect the privacy and safety of the children in our care, we only share photos of the home and its amenities, not the children themselves.

A Place of Peaceful Transition
Designed to be a peaceful haven, Kiana’s House helps children transition smoothly into the foster care system. Here, they find not only shelter but also a sense of belonging and support. With the guidance of our dedicated DCS Staff and WRAP Team Volunteers, children are empowered to face the future with confidence.

The WRAP Team: Support in Action

Volunteers play a vital role at Kiana’s House through our WRAP Program:

  • Words of Affirmation: Encouraging children and staff alike.

  • Respite: Assist the DCS Staff during the transition period of each child.

  • Acts of Service: From homework help to fun activities, volunteers serve with joy.

  • Prayer: Covering the home in faith and love.

By engaging with the children through games, crafts, and simple acts of kindness, volunteers become a source of comfort and stability.

 

Building a Brighter Future

The vision for Kiana’s House doesn’t stop at providing temporary shelter. It’s about building a brighter future—impacting generations, one child at a time. Every effort, from providing basic necessities to offering emotional and spiritual support, is aimed at helping these children feel loved, valued, and prepared for the next steps in their journey.

And we’re not stopping there! Our goal is to expand, building more Kiana’s Houses to reach even more children in crisis. With your continued support, we can make this vision a reality. Consider donating today to help us provide hope, healing, and a brighter future for vulnerable children. Together, we can transform lives and create lasting change!
