Success Story

These two people (65-year-old mother and 45-year-old son) are homeless living in a car because his mental impairments prevent him from working and her husband will not allow them to stay in the house with him. The son recently lost his job because of his mental condition. The mother is awaiting a Section 8 voucher.
They came to Faith in Action seeking a motel room or at least a safer place to park the car at night. We contacted the police department and asked for, and were given, a list of safe and legal places to park.
We placed them on the waiting list for space in the Opportunity Village. They have been given space at the Opportunity Village and are expecting to receive a housing voucher soon.
