Our Story
45 YEARS
18,000+ SURVIVORS
SEASON & SHADOW CONTINUES THIS LEGACY
"The work program gave me more than just skills; it restored my confidence and sense of self-worth. I found the courage—the “guts”—to stand up for myself and believe I was capable of creating a better future. Being part of the Merryman House community surrounded me with people who valued and respected me, which gave me a deep sense of inclusion and belonging."

Why Create Jobs?
Of the clients we saw in the past year:
56% are unemployed
61% lost employment due to abusive partner
75% have financial obstacles to living independently
83% lack reliable transportation to work
Our clients need a job-readiness program and worksite that is purposeful, safe, and provides them skills to take into the marketplace. Season & Shadow is a solution to this problem. We create everyday spice blends, made by survivors, creating jobs and sustainability for our programs.
How It Works
Made possible by a contribution by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Season & Shadow will create jobs in:
Spice production
Packaging and fulfillment
Marketing and sales
