Young-ja served twelve years in the air force and was discharged in 2023 with hearing damage and PTSD. She has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place. The plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote comes to $4,950. Young-ja is receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and is committed to recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces. Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly. Where the $4,950 goes: • Training provider fees: $1,550 • Housing deposit and first month: $2,450 • Transport to appointments: $450 • Essential household items: $500 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Jae-hyun
