Amanda recently become a single mother, parenting a baby girl. At a young age she left home and stayed with friends and family when they allowed. After becoming a parent, it was more difficult to find someone who would allow her to stay with a small child. With no income and no education Amanda found herself homeless.
Because the Family Stability Program was available for Amanda, she was able to keep her family intact and get her life back on track. She now has a roof over her head, food, as well as guidance and support to find a career path that will allow her to provide for her daughter. Through this program she receives mental health counseling and has become more self confident. She is working now and looks forward to living in a safe and permanent home of her own in the near future. She is proud to be setting an example of self-sufficiency for her child.
