Help us revitalize Ulster County’s only teen shelter
The Impact
Interior design directly impacts emotional well-being, stress levels, and cognitive function by altering environment, light, color, and layout. Well-designed spaces use natural elements, organized layouts, and intentional, calming, colors to, boost, mood, reduce stress, and improve productivity. Key elements like, lighting, spatial flow, and clutter reduction are critical to fostering a sense of peace or energy.
We are proud to announce the launch of the Love In Action Project, a community-driven initiative to revitalize the indoor spaces of Family of Woodstock’s Family House, Ulster County’s only shelter serving runaway and homeless youth ages 12–17. The project seeks to transform bedrooms, common areas, and gathering spaces into environments that reflect hope, dignity, comfort, and belonging.
“Every young person who comes through our doors deserves more than shelter — they deserve spaces that help them heal, grow, and feel genuinely supported.”
Robert Molina, Director of Family HouseThrough your support….as a director for __ years I’ve seen how vital it is to a child’s health….
“Every child deserves a space that reflects their worth, supports their healing, and reminds them they matter.”
Brooke Lane, brookelane Design StudioLove In Action is about creating spaces that remind every young person they are seen, supported, and valued.
At Family House, incredible care is given to the youth who pass through its doors—but the physical space has not been updated in over 30 years. With time, the wear has become visible. This project is about transforming these environments into ones that feel safe, uplifting, and filled with dignity.
Through thoughtful design, we have the opportunity to create spaces that support healing, inspire hope, and reflect the level of care these children truly deserve.
I’m honored to contribute my time to this initiative and hopeful we can come together to bring these spaces to life.
