I served fourteen years in the army and was discharged in 2023 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 trained service dog and handler course. The quote I have comes to $800.
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 $800 goes:
• Training provider fees: $350
• Housing deposit and first month: $330
• Transport to appointments: $30
• Essential household items: $90
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Leicester
