Adult Mental Health & Wellness

Before The Village I was homeless. If it wouldn’t have been for The Village, I don’t know where I would have been right now. The future looks very, very bright to me. I can say I can smile.

As a mother, it is not easy. With the support of the programs, we are more at ease, as if we were given more strength.

Our daughter is very precious to us. We are not as overwhelmed as we were before. We think she’s going to come along much better thanks to people like The Village.

Financial & Career

I came to The Village with trauma, with a lot of things to unpack. I was able find myself again and pick up the pieces and take charge of my life.
