Amethyst Place is a long-term supportive housing program for women and children recovering from generational poverty, substance use, and trauma. Located at 28th and Troost in Kansas City’s Midtown, we have been transforming lives for 25 years.
WE’VE MOVED!
The Amethyst Place main office is now located at our new Tracy Campus at 2750 Tracy Avenue, Kansas City, MO 64109.
Unless otherwise specified by staff, all donation drop-offs should now occur at this location instead of our 2735 Troost office.
An Historic Moment for Family Transformation
On June 27, 2025, we cut the ribbon on our brand-new 32-unit campus, a $16.5M investment in affordable housing + recovery support for families overcoming intergenerational trauma, substance use, and poverty. The event marked our 25th anniversary and reminded us what’s possible when community comes together—with love, hope, and celebration.

“When I made it to Amethyst, oh my God, it was mind-blowing…the sisters, the staff. I ain’t never felt a love like that, a sisterhood like that … I am striving to raise a great woman. I invest in her because she is my lifeline, and I love her with everything in me.”
“I want to make a better life for my kids and me. I want to show my kids that life is worth living and working hard will pay off in the end. I deserve to be the person I want to be, and that has motivated me so much.”
“I believe in the work Amethyst Place is doing; oftentimes a second chance is so very valuable to families in distress. Providing safety and the additional resources needed to get past major life hurdles couldn’t be more valuable. Amethyst Place is providing a future for the most at-risk families and impacting our city greatly in the process!”
