Hope & Healing Survivor Resource Center

Founding awareness and advocacy partner

Hope & Healing Survivor Resource Center

Akron, Ohio

The Hope & Healing Survivor Resource Center serves survivors of intimate partner violence, sexual violence and human trafficking across Summit and Medina counties in Ohio, with crisis support, advocacy, counseling, safety planning and shelter.

They are also the organization closest to where Angie lived. In July 2026 I visited, met their team, and delivered a bedding donation from my staging collection for the shelter. Their CEO, Teresa Stafford-Wright, agreed that day to make the Hope & Healing Survivor Resource Center the founding awareness and advocacy partner of Recognize to Rise.

They do the work. We help people find them, and organizations like them, before it is an emergency.

With thanks

Hope & Healing has been generous with its time and its expertise since the beginning of this work, and much of what appears on this site reflects what they taught us. We are grateful for their support, and for the work they do every day across Summit and Medina counties.
