“I was losing hope.”
Judith was feeling like so many others who are dealing with the uncertainty of sleeping on the streets. Hopeless.
That was until one day, while sitting on a park bench and feeling depressed, Judith was approached by a case manager from Mental Health Association’s Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness (PATH) who shared our pamphlet and explained the services we offer.
From that moment, she states she felt a renewed sense of hope and began working with us to get things in order, including finding the right mental health treatment and securing an apartment. Reflecting on her experience, she said, "I was losing hope and my case manager told me to hang in there and do not give up. My case manager went above and beyond, gave me pep talks, and truly cares about me.” With the support of PATH, she has been able to rebuild her life and now has her own apartment; the first home she’s had in many years.
PATH is more than just a housing program. Through outreach, intensive case management, and personalized support, PATH connects individuals experiencing homelessness with the resources they need to rebuild their lives. Our dedicated team works tirelessly, ensuring that each person is provided with housing and guided toward community-based services like healthcare, mental health support, and employment opportunities.
This success story would not be possible without your generous support. However, the need is still great. Every day people like Judith reach out for help, and your contributions ensure that we can continue to be a lifeline for those in crisis. With your donation, you can help turn the key for someone else—unlocking not just a home, but hope.
