Our Mission
Rising Chapter Housing is a trauma-informed, short-term transitional housing program for survivors of domestic violence. The organization was created to address the critical gap between emergency shelter and permanent housing.
We believe that leaving violence is only the first step – rebuilding stability requires time, safety, and structured support.
What We Do
Rising Chapter Housing operates a confidential, small-capacity safe housing serving up to 8 residents at a time. With an average stay of 30-90 days, the program provides:
- Safe, stable housing
- Individualized case management
- Safety planning and advocacy
- Housing navigation support
- Employment and income resource connections
- Referrals to counseling and community resources
- Each resident develops a Personal Stability Plan focusing ono securing long-term housing & building sustainable independence.
Why It Matters
In Hamilton, Butler, Warren, and Clermont counties, domestic violence shelters frequently operate at capacity, and survivors often face limited options after emergency shelter. Without transitional support, many individuals return to unsafe environments or experience housing instability.
Rising Chapter Housing bridge this gap by providing a calm, structured, trauma-informed environment that promotes safety, dignity, and forward movement.

Our Vision
We envision a community where every survivor has access to safe housing, compassionate support, and the opportunity to build a secure and independent future.
What Trauma-Informed Means to Us
At Rising Chapter Housing, being trauma-informed means recognizing that every survivor’s experience is unique and that healing cannot be rushed or forced. We prioritize physical and emotional safety, offer choices whenever possible, and center each resident’s autonomy and voice in decision-making. Our environment is structured yet compassionate, built on predictability, transparency, cultural humility, and empowerment. We understand that trauma impacts housing stability, employment, relationships, and trust, and we respond with patience, respect, and collaboration rather than control.
