Continued Person centered
Hello,
Thank you for the opportunity to share. I would like to start with I have personally experienced homelessness. I was sadden and challenged by life. I was a single parent with no support from the father of my child. I had spiraled into a very dark place in my life.
Drugs had taken my job, my housing, my spirit. The shelter I stayed in was very instrumental in assisting me with finding housing and our local DSS assisted with furniture voucher which they no longer do. It was one shot deal (furniture) and I was able to take it. I currently work in the field. We need a much stronger commitment to collectively working together with physicians, psychiatrist, and employers. Oue plan should include there is enough to go around and this is not a competition.
Thanks,
