"It's always good to have a buddy. Someone you can talk to. Someone who can support you. Someone... You can't do anything alone... It's important to have someone that you can walk through this journey with. " - Yolander Lewis, Recovery Advocate Watch now: youtu.be/Cv0p06IBnLw?si…

The number one draw for people who didn't think they wanted to leave the streets? A private bathroom. - @VictoryPrograms' Sarah Porter at #NAEH2024

"Telling people you won't be able to be kicked out of a shelter creates a HUGE sense of safety, partnership, and relationship." @VictoryPrograms' Sarah Porter explains how this trust can eventually lead people into permanent housing. #NAEH2024
