“Every night at the homeless shelter, guests bring stories of homelessness.  I tell them, “I know what you are going through, I feel your pain, because I have been where you are.”  I want them to know that there is life after homelessness. You can go on and make a better life than the one you had.”

Originally, I tried to buy a house on my own but it didn’t work out. I came to Hudson River Housing and started saving so that I could be successful the next time around. I spoke to the Director and she said, “You are not going to leave here until you get a house!” and what she told me came true! However, I didn’t want to leave my sister behind, so I encouraged her to join the program as well.
