Sara has worked at Agape for over 17 years. Her passion is helping the homeless and those suffering from addiction. In her time off she loves spending time with her grandchildren.
I started my career at Agape before I went to work in the prison system running the DOSA program in Shelton. Later, I went to work at another outpatient facility, before coming back here in 2017 which is home to me. I love what I do. It is the best of both worlds because I get to train folks that are just coming in to the field & still have the privilege of working with clients. It has been a full circle for me as I am also an Agape graduate & completed outpatient treatment in 2009. I believe that people can change & I love being part of that.
I have been with Agape since 2018 and I love working here. Being a child raised by parents with drug and alcohol addictions, I have a passion for what we do here at Agape. When I am away from Agape, I love playing board games with my family, gardening, reading & writing with my husband. I love being outdoors, especially when it is warm outside. I am married to the man of my dreams and between us we have 5 wonderful sons + one fantastic daughter in law.
Kira has been in the field for 6 years.
She has a passion for helping people
and beleives change is possible for everyone.
She loves to spend time with her family.
She also loves cats, dogs, & lots of glitter.

Hello, my name is Diana and I'm an alumni of Agape. I've been clean and in recovery for almost 6 years. While I was a client, the staff was amazing and I wanted to be a part of the Agape work family some day. It took a few years and now I get to be a part of this awesome place. I choose recovery everyday - no matter what. I love helping people and I love to see the changes in people's lives as they learn how to live life without being in active addiction.

Hello! I'm Gabrielle a case manager here at PCAP and ever since I was younger I knew I wanted to work with others in a personal and meaningful way. Once I made my way to University I learned about interpersonal communication, so I decided to pursue a communications degree accompanied by a technical writing minor. I am beyond ecstatic to be apart of this family because I know I'm meant to be here... lets collaborate!
I am a case manager at the Parent-Child Assistance Program (PCAP). I completed my BA in Early Childhood Education from the University of Washington and worked in the early childhood education field for three years in Seattle. I returned to Kitsap County and PCAP in 2019. I enjoy working as a case manager for PCAP because I can join both passions of child development and human services case management to support families to move forward in positive directions.

Aloha, I’m Alexa! I joined PCAP in 2022 as an advocate/case manager. My background is in developmental psychology and parent-child relationships. No matter where you’re starting out, I’m here to walk with you towards the future you want for yourself and your family.
I have a passion for helping those in need, but didn't realize how I wanted to help until I faced my own addiction. At first, I thought my life would never be the same once I was labeled an "addict." In 2017 my daughter was removed from my care. I decided to change my life & enter treatment at Agape. They taught me that I can survive without drugs & more than that, I can THRIVE! They helped me see the value in myself. I want to be a positive influence & show others that they can be more than their addiction. Through recovery, I have my child back & am a mother of two.
