This message is shared by Kayla’s family on her behalf.

Kayla is a survivor of a severe act of violence that has profoundly impacted her physical health, emotional well-being, and sense of safety. While the immediate danger has passed, her recovery is ongoing and will take time, care, and stability.

Right now, Kayla is focused on healing. She is navigating medical follow-up, trauma-informed therapy, and the difficult work of rebuilding daily routines after a life-altering event. Like many survivors, she is also facing practical challenges that come with recovery—time away from work, essential living and safety expenses, and the need for consistent support during this transition period.

As her family, we are organizing this effort to help ease the financial burden she is carrying so she can prioritize her health, safety, and long-term healing. These funds will go directly toward medical care, mental health support, and basic life needs that are not fully covered by insurance or public resources.

We are intentionally keeping details limited out of respect for Kayla’s privacy and dignity. This is not about publicity or legal matters—it is about care, stability, and surrounding her with the support she deserves.

Thank you for being part of her community and for helping create space for recovery.
