Local Love Impacting Local Lives

John’s story

I struggled with housing throughout my adult life, but with the United Way I was able to connect with services that helped me find stable housing and the confidence I needed to participate in my community.

Alexis’ story

When I got to high school I struggled to fit in. I fought with my parents and  I ended up leaving home, getting involved with the wrong crowd and with drugs. Without the support and guidance I received from United Way funded agencies, I would not be where I am, or who I am today.

Jaz’s story

At 21, I was living on the streets, using drugs and had little support. A social worker told me about a program funded by United Way that helped new and expectant mothers and I started going. I now have three healthy children and help others in similar situations.
