"It didn't seem like I was ever gonna get away ...[Every] Friday, I was wondering how I was going to pay another day where I was gonna go, I was gonna go back to a car or I was going to be on a bench. Just anywhere I woke up at. No food, no water....nobody to turn to.
Where am I gonna go? where am I gonna eat? Am I gonna be cold? Because after I'd come up with the $350 a week I didn't have money for food or nothing.
We found an apartment, and we paid the deposit and I've been there four months now this month.
I feel peace. I'm not scared anymore. I'm just looking forward to better things. My life, my health is getting better.
It saved my life."
