Sarah Shaver talks with Stacy Gancos, Founder of Stacy’s House, serving today’s Ashtabula County Youth. Gancos recalls the genesis of Stacy’s House as she and her husband assisted teens with an unstable home-life who were perhaps “couch-surfing.” She notes the house, provided by a local person, gives youth a safe, supervised place where they can be mentored, get food and clothing, wash clothes or bathe, play, study, and much more. Gancos says she tries to remove barriers that prevent kids from moving forward and being successful and Sunday dinners are a part of that ( sgancos@go-cdc.org stacygancos@gmail.com)
