Testimonials

"One wrong move and I fell short to the point that I was sleeping in my car. I didn’t know where I was going to use the bathroom or get a drink of water. I heard about the shelter, so I called. I was very overwhelmed, in tears, and embarrassed. They told me to be here in 30 minutes. I was so comfortable from day one. I can see the flicker of light at the end of the tunnel now."
