From Misunderstood to Finding Identity in Transformative Support
You have a place here. A home here. An identity here.
What Does This Mean?
Our heart is to reach those who feel alone and misunderstood — because we’ve been there. We’ve loved those who’ve been there. And we want to be a space where no one feels unseen.
What About the FITS Part?
misFITS was born from the idea of having a place to belong — even in a world we don’t always fit into.
FITS = Finding Identity in Transformative Support.

Psalm 107:4–9

Dacey plans to return to school to pursue a degree in counseling, and in the meantime, she offers encouragement and support through art, design, and intentional community.
