Stomping Grounds was born from lived experience, years of working alongside people navigating housing instability & seeing firsthand how hard it can be to find help when life gets complicated. 

​

Our founder, Amber DeFrenchi, saw the gaps between people and the systems meant to support them. She also saw something powerful: what happens when people show up for each other.

​

That became the heart of Stomping Grounds, a grassroots & community-driven project built from the ground up around dignity, advocacy, connection, and second chances.

​

We are not here to decide what someone's path should look like. We are here to walk beside them, help remove barriers, and create a community where everyone has a place to belong.

​

Because sometimes finding solid ground starts with knowing you don't have to find it alone.
