Zoya served six years in the infantry and was discharged in 2022 with post-traumatic stress. She has been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote comes to $1,000.
Zoya is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Training provider fees: $600
• Housing deposit and first month: $250
• Transport to appointments: $75
• Essential household items: $75
Thank you for reading my story.
