Jameson served fourteen years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2024 with a back injury. He has been waiting nine 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 $2,700. Jameson 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 $2,700 goes: • Essential household items: $220 • Transport to appointments: $380 • Training provider fees: $2,100 Thank you for reading my story.
