A STORY OF HOPE: CLARENCE*

“I was a Housing Opportunities Program client. I was homeless, living in a shed. Prior to the Housing Opportunities Program, my significant other passed away. My employer found out about my health issue. As a result, the employer made my work environment uncomfortable and difficult to work in. I quit the job because of those circumstances.  During this timeframe, I was dealing with physical health issues, stress, and grief. As the program was helping me to obtain housing, I fell sick. The landlord and the Housing Opportunities Program worked together to get me housed immediately. I was very emotional and said, ‘I am so grateful for the assistance.’  Finally, I was able to find another job.”
