Avery served eight years in the navy and was discharged in 2024 with post-traumatic stress. She has been waiting seven months for support, and meanwhile is sleeping at a brother's place.
The plan: a deposit on a one-bedroom apartment. The quote comes to $4,500.
Avery 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 $4,500 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,400
• Housing deposit and first month: $1,150
• Transport to appointments: $390
• Essential household items: $560
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Good news. Because of your gifts ($30 in total) the plan for transport to appointments is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely. - Patrick

Good news. Because of your gifts ($30 in total) I made the first payment toward essential household items. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
