[November 25, 2024] As we enter this season of gratitude and reflection, we want to take a moment to thank you for being part of our community and share our latest uplifting moments. We are grateful that you recognize the humanity in every person and offer your support throughout the year.
Our wonderful case managers have recently helped several guests find homes.
- After searching for nearly a year, one guest secured an apartment—on their birthday!
- Another guest, who had been without a home for nearly two years, was brought to tears, unable to believe that a home had finally been found.
- A couple who met at the shelter (and were married earlier this year) finally found a place and moved in at the beginning of November.
- Two young adults recently found homes through Elevate Youth Services. One, weary from a lifetime of instability, hesitated to move again, yearning for “a consistent spot to sleep.” Upon arrival, he was reunited with his childhood best friend, instantly lifting his spirits!
In these especially heavy and difficult times, it’s important to celebrate the wins. We applaud our excellent staff, agency partners, faith communities, and community members who work in tandem to find homes, prepare the guests to live on their own again, and even help furnish their new apartments.
