A service dog for Serenity, an air force veteran in Sydney

I served ten years in the air force and was discharged in 2024 with chronic tinnitus. I have been waiting nine months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place. I have a plan: a trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $5,100. I'm receiving counseling through the veterans' clinic and am committed to my recovery. Structure and a stable place to live are the missing pieces. I'd be grateful for any help and will share updates on how I'm doing. Money will be paid to the training provider and the landlord directly. Where the $5,100 goes: • Training provider fees: $2,200 • Transport to appointments: $380 • Housing deposit and first month: $2,520 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Serenity
