April's Story

“I have been using the center ever since the time I became homeless 8 months ago.  I have become homeless due to a domestic violence thing and I was left on the streets with no place to turn to.  I came into the Visitation Center totally surprised at the help that I received.  I have gotten the necessary uniform for my 12-year-old son to go to school.  I also got a winter jacket for him.
