A HOUSING SUCCESS STORY
By Yasna Ali
We recently had a client who was forcefully and unfairly removed from his apartment by his landlord, which caused him to lose his apartment and belongings. Through our JFS Housing Program, we assisted him in securing a new apartment in the neighborhood where he grew up, an area that holds meaningful and positive memories for him. To support his transition and promote financial stability, we covered four months of his rent The client is now stably housed and has shared his appreciation for the support and assistance provided by our agency as he works towards rebuilding his life
