Welcome to Kat’s Kastle Foundation A home for healing, truth, connection.
For survivors seeking connection or simply a safe place to land, without judgment, fixing, or saving.
For survivors seeking connection or simply a safe place to land, without judgment, fixing, or saving.
At Kat’s Kastle Foundation, we believe healing is a right—not a privilege.
We empower survivors of domestic violence by offering trauma-informed support, community connection, and sacred healing spaces.
This isn’t about saving anyone. It’s about walking beside them.
We help survivors turn pain into purpose and rise, defined not by what they’ve endured, but by who they’re becoming.
At Kat’s Kastle Foundation, we know that not every survivor is ready to speak — and that’s okay. Until they find their voice, we will stand beside them and speak truth out loud.
Every survivor deserves more than safety. They deserve connection, compassion, and community. That’s why Kat’s Kastle isn’t a shelter — it’s a sanctuary.
Founded by bestselling author and national speaker Kat Bartlett, Kat’s Kastle is a survivor-led space where healing begins with truth, conversation, and courage. We don’t “rescue” anyone. Instead, we sit beside survivors as they rebuild their lives on their own terms — with strength, dignity, and hope.
A world where every survivor feels safe, supported, and seen. At Kat’s Kastle Foundation, we don’t rescue, we stand beside you, offering strength, connection, and the courage to rebuild.
You may remember it as I Got Out.
This is its next chapter — the same stories of strength, courage, and survival, now reborn under a new name that speaks to what healing truly is: truth, spoken out loud.
💜 In honor of Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Kat’s Kastle Foundation is gifting 100 free e-copies of Truth Out Loud to honor survivors everywhere — and in loving memory of Shana “Mini” Warner.

In Memory of Shana “Mini” Warner: Mini’s spirit of resilience continues to fuel the work we do at Kat’s Kastle, ensuring that her strength lives on in every survivor we support.

These aren’t speeches. They’re sacred conversations—alive with truth, strength, grit, laughter, and healing.

✨ Communities connect through courage, honesty, and hope.
