About Us
History
Our story began the day our founder entered the world... purpose born from pain.
OUR STORY
What happened on 8/19 didn’t just mark a moment in time; it sealed a destiny. From that day forward, every step, every struggle, and every breakthrough shaped a mission bigger than one person. It became the foundation of a movement built on resilience and the belief that purpose often rises from our deepest challenges.

Our focus includes serving women, men, and children throughout the River Region who are affected by conditions such as depression, anxiety, trauma, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and suicidal ideation.
OUR MISSION
To build resilience and inspire hope through unwavering, extraordinary faith and compassion, empowering individuals and communities to thrive in the face of adversity.
Meet Our Founder
In February 2025, Javette Jones turned her pain into purpose by founding 219at819 Resilient Heart, a nonprofit organization built from the depths of personal struggle and the determination to rise above it. For years, she fought silent battles against clinical depression, complex PTSD, suicidal ideation, and the relentless grip of anxiety that no one could see, often in isolation. But within those darkest moments, RESILIENCE emerged. Rather than allow her struggles to define her, Javette chose to use them as a catalyst for change; not just in her own life, but in the lives of others walking similar paths. Thus, 219at819 Resilient Heart was born. Named with intention and personal meaning, the organization is more than a nonprofit… it’s a lifeline.
