Paula served four years in the infantry and was discharged in 2024 with a traumatic brain injury. She has been waiting fourteen months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote comes to $2,950.
Paula 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 $2,950 goes:
• Training provider fees: $1,650
• Housing deposit and first month: $690
• Transport to appointments: $330
• Essential household items: $280
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Paula!
