Featured Story

Dawn & Miracle

Dawn, along with her two-year-old daughter, was evicted from her apartment after discovering her roommate was stealing her portion of the rent, rather than paying the landlord.

"We didn't have anywhere to go. I tried to keep Miracle as comfortable as I could in the backseat of the car. Honestly, the only thing I knew to do was pray that there was something out there that could help us."

Luckily, Dawn called the Coalition and was welcomed into our Rapid ReHousing Program, where she met her Housing Manager, Brenda.

Brenda says, "While my clients are with me, we work on making budgets and creating goals for the future." Another key aspect of Brenda's role is to build relationships with property managers and landlords.

"A lot of the families come to me with past evictions or things in their background that can cause some roadblocks," Branda explains. "To get through that barrier, I assure the landlords that my clients will have me by their side supporting them. I also make it a point to thank them because without them giving these families a second chance, they would have nowhere to go."

Within a month of becoming homeless and living in their car, Brenda handed Dawn the keys to her new apartment.

"I'm thankful that the Coalition has programs that can help families like mine. We are truly blessed beyond our measure," Dawn says.
