I served ten years in the marines and was discharged in 2022 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting eleven months for support, and meanwhile I'm sleeping at my brother's place.
I have a plan: a first month of rent and transport to job interviews. The quote I have comes to $3,850.
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 $3,850 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,350
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,050
• Transport to appointments: $180
• Essential household items: $270
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Thinking of you and your family, Danielle. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 8 people at work. Thinking of Belfast.
Hang in there, Danielle. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Jakarta Selatan.
