"In the blink of an eye, I can easily find myself back in the position of the clients I help. I am all too aware of this. This is what keeps me going. This is where I draw my strength. As long as I am in the position to help, I am going to do so without passing judgement. That is what the work that I do is all about."
Housing Forward and Prevail announced today that they are merging to strengthen the support system for individuals and families in our communities who are experiencing financial and housing crises.
