Guest Story

"Hi, I'm Sean... I don't really remember a time when I wasn't homeless. It's been a long time."

Since working with a case manager at SOS, Sean is looking forward to an apartment of his own for the first time in 10 years! "Even when I don't know what's going on - there's someone else who does know. That's a good thing and it's helpful."
