Home(less) is Where the Heart is: Misty Bosch-Hastings, Topeka Rescue Mission

Reentry Reframed

Growing up in small-town Kansas, Misty endured a traumatic childhood. Being surrounded by the drug-induced chaos of her parents, she struggled to feel supported. With the effects of her childhood lingering into adulthood, she found herself repeating the cycle of domestic violence and addiction which spiraled even further out of control following the loss of her father. One day, she came to a realization she wanted to break the generational cycle of trauma. Her past life was burnt to the ground following a house fire where she lost everything. Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, she rebuilt her life from the ground up by the grace of God, a supportive community, and an empowering mentor. Misty honors her father in the work she does today; she pours her heart out with her sleeves rolled up serving and housing the homeless population.
