A new beginning after a home fire

AB, a Mom in her forties, lost her home due to a fire, while she was away visiting family during the holidays.  When she returned, she received support from the community to stay in a hotel for 30 days.  She was referred to us to assist in finding her a home within that time frame.  With only SSI as her sole income, it was a challenge, due to the income requirements needed to rent an apartment.  She was hired and trained as a bookkeeper in order to meet those requirements, and a relationship was formed with a local landlord who took a chance on her and her situation.  She has been there for two years and has recently found additional employment in an environment that allows her to interact with people each day.
