HER HEALING CENTER

Trauma-Informed Design | Billings, MT

Trafficking is happening right in our backyard, and the numbers of victims is on the rise. The women and children who fall victim to trafficking often have minimal resources and places to turn to for guidance and healing after enduring such traumatic experiences.

Recognizing this urgent need, I undertook this transformative project to restore the historic Streeter Brothers building in downtown Billings, Montana. This revitalization effort repurposes this building into a trauma-informed healing center for the HER Campaign. This initiative marks the first of its kind in the state of Montana, serving as a beacon of hope and support for those who have been victimized by trafficking.

TRAFFICKING STATISTICS

6 out of 10 victims are female

The average age of sex trafficking victims is between 12 and 14 years old

Half of all victims are children

Over 16,000 victims of trafficking in the U.S. in 2021

HER CAMPAIGN LIVING

SAFE HOUSE

3-5 Day Shelter for Crisis Intervention providing safe shelter, basic needs, and resource assessment.

30 DAY EMERGENCY SHELTER

The Emergency Shelter will provide women 18+ and their children with next step therapy, mental health and wellness assessments, case management, and long-term residential placement.

HER REFUGE FAMILY ALLIANCE

A network of families mentored and trained by HER Campaign to integrate survivors into their families to provide long-term residential care throughout the journey of healing.

TRANSITIONAL LIVING FACILITY

Transitional Living Home for continues safe place to have emotional, spiritual, and economic independence, and development of healthy families and community.

SERVICE IN HOME

HER Refuge provides residents with comprehensive support aimed at fostering independence. This includes a loving family environment, daily living skills, access to creative therapies like equine and art, medical care, group and individual therapy, job skills training, and employment opportunities. The initial 60 days focus on meeting basic needs, building trust, and creating personalized healing plans based on Maslow’s Hierarchy.

CORE VALUES

HOPE, DIGNITY, AND SELF-ESTEEM

Celebrate each individual’s worth, communicating positivity, emphasizing strengths, and maximizing potential.

CONNECTION AND COMMUNITY

Create spaces that encourage camaraderie and collaboration - among residents as well as between residents and staff - and offer the opportunity to belong, helping residents to build relationship built on trust.

JOY, BEAUTY, AND MEANING

Honor culture and identity while creating spaces that spark and nurture imagination, hope, and aspiration.

PEACE OF MIND

Cultivate a comfortable, calm ambiance that supports relaxation, self-soothing, stress management, and coping through design details like lighting, sounds, natural elements, and access to nature.

EMPOWERMENT AND PERSONAL CONTROL

Encourage individuals agency, welcome self-expression, and offer choices for residents.

SAFETY, SECURITY, AND PRIVACY

Understand that residents’ perceives safety is just as important as actual safety. Prioritize clear way finding, sight lines, and boundaries; minimize negative triggers; offer vantages of both prospect and refuge and paths of retreat; recognize the role of program staff in creating a sense of safety and security.

THE 3 C’S OF DESIGNING FOR HEALTH AND HEALING

Working to achieve Maslow’s Hierarchy of needs and implementing the core values of trauma informed design, these 3 key themes have been highlighted in order to shift from providing shelter to promoting healing.

CHOICE

1

Emphasizes individual access, agency, and ownership; describes elements of personalization (ex. furniture arrangement) and level of resident engagement with the space (ex. choosing between relaxing in a community space or in their own room).

COMMUNITY

2

3

Responds to the way the residents may engage - with staff and other residents, and guests - through placement and design of programmatic spaces, office spaces, and public gathering spaces that facilitate relationshipbuilding.

COMFORT

Includes aspects such as the quality and variety of materials’ sensory experiences of light, sound, and smell; and elements such as nature and artwork that bring calm or spark joy.

“These core values and key concepts frame the intent of the trauma-informed design process and influence design decision-making across all building systems and features - from natural elements and access to nature, to safety and security, to circulation and way finding, to light and color, and to flexibility and scale.”

Research by Shopwork Architects and The University of Denver Center for Housing and Homeless

PATH HOME

Precedent Study

Path Home, formerly Portland Homeless Family Solutions, provides shelter and support services for unhoused families across the greater Portland area. Our firm was approached with their vision for the Family Village Campus - a permanent shelter space that provides families with direct access to services, classes, and supplies while they partner with staff to build toward securing long term housing. The renovation created shared spaces for cooking, dining, laundry, bathing, reading, learning, playing, lounging, and gathering, as well as private bedrooms. Part of the building was also dedicated to office space for the PHFS team.

The lounge serves as a safe haven for both staff and provides secure storage for women’s documents and personal belongings not permitted in transitional living spaces.

DE-ESCALATION/SENSORY

Given the trauma experienced by incoming individuals, high levels of stress can become overwhelming, necessitating complete isolation. The de-escalation space will feature fully customizable settings, including noise levels, lighting, and textures. These spaces provide residents with choices and offer a dedicated area for coping and managing stress, promoting relaxation and self-soothing.

SINGLE OCCUPANCY RESTROOMS

This space will be utilized by various individuals, including staff members, new women at the HER Campaign, children, healthcare providers, and others. The provision of single-occupancy restrooms ensures optimal privacy during what could be perceived as vulnerable moments. These restrooms establish clear boundaries and mitigate potential negative triggers that may arise when individuals are trying to freshen up.

GALLERY

Residents, staff, and other HER Campaign members have access to the “Community Store,” where they can purchase essential items like feminine products, snacks, hygiene products, and drinks. The store is equipped with a self-checkout system, which empowers residents by giving them personal control and a sense of purpose. This not only offers choices but also allows for meaningful experiences beyond their immediate surroundings.

SALON

This cozy two-seat salon provides chances for both community integration and personal empowerment among residents. A fresh hairstyle can be transformative, and this salon extends that opportunity to every HER Campaign member. It nurtures feelings of hope, dignity, and heightened self-esteem, with the goal of enhancing joy, beauty, and a sense of empowerment Everyone deserves the luxury of pampering themselves in a safe environment.

Women and children who arrive here have endured unimaginable trauma. This space is crafted to facilitate their healing with support from external resources. Community counselors can utilize the individual offices to aid these individuals on their journey to recovery. These counseling spaces are essential, offering a calming, safe, and trauma-informed setting. Moreover, the rooms empower individuals by granting control over elements like noise and light, catering to their preferences.

MAIN RECEPTION

Revit | Enscape | Procreate

The main reception serves as the building’s first impression, emphasizing both security and a welcoming atmosphere for newcomers, employees, families, and women. It features a custombuilt reception desk that acts as a barrier for safety, with a secured entrance into the main building. The space is designed to be simple yet functional, addressing the deficiency needs illustrated in Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs with soft colors, natural materials, and gentle lighting to evoke joy and hope.

PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE

Young Architects Compitition | Siwa, Egypt

The Shali ruins in Siwa require preservation to prevent their deterioration within the city’s chaos. Preservation methods typically involve covering or burying historic sites, each with its limitations. This proposal, done with MSU Architecture graduate, Parker Trost, suggests a balanced approach by burying the base of the ruins to ensure stability and create functional spaces, while covering inhabited areas to protect both occupants and the exposed walls. This dual technique aims to preserve the ruins and transform the site into a backdrop for performing arts, harmonizing history and the arts in Siwa. This project was completed using sketchup, v-ray, revit, and procreate.

This project went on to be among the finalists as an honorable mention.
