K'STAR is a non-profit, community based organization creating safe and caring environments through counseling and shelter services to empower long-term life-skills and successful transitions for youth and families in 14 Texas counties.  K'STAR Emergency Shelter provides nurtureing and supportive environment for displaced children. Through the practice of Trauma-Informed Care, we start the process of healing the abuse, neglect, and trauma suffered in their early years. Our home can house up to twenty children ages birth to seventeen. Children are placed with us through the Texas Department of Family Protective Services, 2Ingage, Saint Francis Ministries, and Belong. 

It is our goal to help families develop the skills they need to remain together in a safe and loving environment for all involved. Our family and youth counseling services are provided free of charge to eligible families and aim to prevent runaways, truancy, abuse, and neglect.
