I served six years in the marines and was discharged in 2024 with a traumatic brain injury. I have been waiting seven 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 $2,900. 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 $2,900 goes: • Training provider fees: $1,250 • Housing deposit and first month: $830 • Transport to appointments: $340 • Essential household items: $480 Thank you for reading my story. - Hana

    Hope it all works out, Hana. Looking forward to the next update. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
