Meet Sharon
In the midst of the COVID-19 crisis, she started prioritizing her well-being.
People experience homelessness for many reasons: lack of affordable housing, job loss, mental health concerns, the death of a loved one. In the time of COVID-19, these obstacles become all the more challenging.
When Sharon left her unhealthy marriage behind, she suddenly found herself alone and struggling to cope with buried mental health challenges.
Then she discovered GlobalGiving partner N Street Village.
Soon, she was surrounded by an incredible network of people dedicated to providing structure and stability back in her life. With their support, Sharon was able to find employment and prioritize herself and her health for the first time in years.
Sharon shares:
“Despite everything, I feel a sense of stability. With the support of N Street Village, I recently got a promotion at work and have been fortunate enough to work remotely through the COVID-19 pandemic.”
