Urban Pathways reposted this
For anyone looking for some inspiration today, I had the opportunity to meet some Urban Pathways residents, all of whom have struggled with homelessness, to hear their stories and see first hand the impact of the work we do. Even with supportive services and housing, many of these individuals continue to face challenges such as: - Difficulties finding a job - Chronic mental and physical health conditions - Breaking free of addiction - Feelings of isolation But here's the inspirational part - I also saw: - Case workers tirelessly helping residents access vital programs - Compassionate leaders patiently listening and asking "How can I help?" - Residents coming together to support each other - And perhaps my favorite: a resident's profound sense of accomplishment as she welcomed us into her home Huge thanks to Jose Cotto, LCSW, Nancy Southwell, Linda Knight, and your teams for organizing this impactful visit but even more, your dedication each and every day in creating a safe and supportive environment for those in need. For anyone interested in learning more about how to combat homelessness, follow Urban Pathways to stay updated on our work. #UrbanPathways #CommunitySupport #EndHomelessness
