    More Than a Shelter: Inside Vera House’s Mission with Tricia Matthews & Rebecca Shiroff

    On this Chimera Cast, host Casey White welcomes Tricia Matthews (Executive Director, Vera House) and Rebecca Shiroff (Sr. Director of Strategic Partnerships & Intergovernmental Affairs) for a candid look at how Vera House serves Central New York—well beyond what most people think of as “a shelter.” They walk through the 24/7 crisis line, two shelters, advocacy and therapy services, prevention education in schools and on campuses, the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner program, accountability classes, elder-abuse response, and new collaborations with law enforcement aimed at reducing violence in Onondaga County. The conversation also explores why “abuse without bruises” matters, how men can be victims too, the emotional toll on frontline staff, and the importance of sustainable funding and strategic partnerships. Casey shares how Chimera Integrations is donating a modern security platform to strengthen safety for Vera House clients and staff, and the team previews community ways to help—from volunteering and in-kind support to attending the annual gala and becoming a monthly donor. If you or someone you know needs help, Vera House’s 24/7 Crisis & Support Line is 315-468-3260. Learn more at verahouse.org
