Tracy's Sanctuary House - Providing A Place

In this episode, Dina sits down with Kelsey Zottnick, Executive Director of Tracy's Sanctuary House -- a non-profit organization located in the heart of Bismarck, ND. It was founded in 2005 and provides a one-of-a-kind, much-needed service to the community. Tracy's Sanctuary House is named after Kelsey's mom. On August 9, 2004, over 200 miles from home, Kelsey's mom and dad, her 11-year-old sister, and her boyfriend (now husband) were returning from dropping Kelsey off at college when their vehicle rolled. Kelsey's mom, Tracy, did not survive. So far from home, the family needed a sanctuary apart from the hospital for family and friends to gather, grieve and process all that had happened – but there was no such place. The family’s mission was to create one. In 2005, they made their vision come to life – a temporary home for families who find themselves in similar situations as Kelsey's family did in 2004. Watch this inspiring interview of turning tragedy into inspiration to create a needed service that has helped so many families across our state and beyond in the past 20 years.
