I’ve been able to focus on myself through Catherine House, focus on what’s important to me. Getting more permanent housing, getting a full-time job, getting my children back.
I count my blessings that I was accepted into Catherine House. The support and guidance offered at a very vulnerable time was immensely appreciated. I felt supported in everything I needed and wanted to achieve. Then came the biggest blessing of all, they found me my forever home, a brand- new apartment in the city through Housing Choices, and I couldn’t be happier.
I really thought that walking through the doors of Catherine House was going to be the worst day of my life. But really, it was the best day of my life.
When I arrived at my room, I was really overwhelmed.
Just having a safe space. Just a room. Somewhere that I could lay my body down, put my head, and know that I didn’t have to be on high alert.
