Luca served six years; now needs help to get home
An army veteran in Los Angeles needs help with a trained service dog and handler course after leaving service with hearing damage and PTSD.
🇺🇸 Los Angeles, California, United States349 views
I served six years in the army and was discharged in 2023 with hearing damage and PTSD. 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 $5,850.
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 $5,850 goes:
• Training provider fees: $2,650
• Housing deposit and first month: $2,250
• Transport to appointments: $550
• Essential household items: $400
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
