ALUMNI SUPPORT SERVICES You supported Program Graduates now living in their own homes

YOU MAKE BRIGHT FUTURES POSSIBLE! It was about this time one year ago that me, Patrick, Sean, and Adam pulled out of the back gate of the Los Robles shelter for the last time. We wiped away tears as we watched the security gate close. They were tears of both joy, and sadness. We were leaving our security, stability, and more important our new family in exchange for a new adventure. It would be an adventure we would not have been able to take without you. In the weeks leading up to our departure Sister Wendi prayed in agreement with us that God would usher us into the new home that He had for us, and He did just that! Due to the skills and knowledge we acquired during our time at Door of Hope we will be in our home a year next month, without a single late or missed rent payment. We literally use EVERYTHING we learned there; we budget, we practice healthy conflict resolution and communication skills (we even have a chore list that we have Sean and Adam sign off on after they have completed their chores!) We came to Door of Hope February 26th 2019 broken and weary, Patrick and I were at the verge of divorce. Fast forward nearly two years later, we are whole again, and thriving! —Erika, 2019 ProgramGraduate “ Thank you for being a part of our journey, you have given us A LOT, the Johnson family are forever in your debt. ”
