OUR COMMUNITY SUPPORT TEAM RALLIED AROUND A PERSON
AT WIT’S END – LITERALLY SAVING HER LIFE
Post-diagnosis, Sarah endured substandard, inaccessible housing in both rentals and home ownership.
She exhausted most of
her finances in pursuit of advanced medical care, and moved out of state,
partly because she had survived domestic violence.
It was a challenging time for a leader who had been a problem solver for others for decades.
She had been involved with lawsuit settlements to greatly improve sidewalks for wheelchair access and now had trouble meeting her own basic needs.
She couldn’t find accessible, affordable
housing anywhere in the country.
