Help Adewale get back to civilian life: housing deposit and training
Adewale served eight years in the medical corps; $550 would cover a trained service dog and handler course.

I served eight years in the medical corps and was discharged in 2023 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting fourteen 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 $550.
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.
I'll post invoices, with personal details hidden.
Where the $550 goes:
• Essential household items: $45
• Transport to appointments: $95
• Training provider fees: $410
Glad we found this place.

Praying for you, Adewale. Hope this works out for you.
Hang in there, Adewale. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Nnewi
Good luck, Adewale. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Thinking of you and your family. Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 30 people at work.
Keep going, Adewale. Your post was clear and honest.
Good luck, Adewale. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
