Dear Friends,
Hi, I am Joanne Washington. I am someone who dealt with chronic homelessness 2009-2017. I was a single mother who lost my job & because I could not find the proper resources in time, I lost our home & vehicle. That sent me into a downward spiral, eventually leading me to live from place to place with a shelter in between. During this time, there was a brief lapse in parenting with me having to send my children to live with my church family until I was able to care for them properly because I was estranged from my family during the journey of homelessness. Unsure how to navigate through the feelings of hopelessness & helplessness, the thought of taking my life seemed to be the only solution to this problem… Today, I present to you a woman who had the faith to believe that life had more to offer not only to me but to my children and you. The experience I endured was not for me but to help others like the old me… existing & not living, living from paycheck to paycheck, having support services stop, experiencing gaps in services, & lack in the basic checks and balances.
Does this sound like you or someone you know? The days of trying to figure it out by yourself are gone. We are Community Liaisons. We use our lived experiences to inspire & create hope through services and community building...as your Community Liaison.
