Aaron and Jen’s CSW Journey
We became homeless when we lost our home of 8 years due to an illegal eviction. We felt hopeless and lost, wandering from place to place, looking for help. We decided to join a community support worker program at a nearby college, hoping to use our own experience to help others like us.
It was hard. We had to study while dealing with the daily struggles of finding food, clothes, and a safe shelter. We faced judgment, rejection, and financial problems. We had to fight our own fears and doubts. We never lost hope and faith, but we had our dark moments.
But we made it. Along the way we got support from a local food bank that gave us healthy food, clothes, and hygiene products. We also got help from our teachers and classmates who cheered us on and trusted us.
We finished our practicum hours at the same food bank that helped us, giving back to the community that cared for us. We graduated with our diplomas and moved into transitional housing.
But we didn’t stop there. We started a coaching website where we offer online coaching sessions for personal growth, as well as services for those who are homeless or at risk of homelessness. We also became homeless advocates, raising awareness for the issue.
We are now volunteering as community support workers, and helping others find hope and healing through our website. We are thankful for our journey and proud of our accomplishments.
We aim to be an inspiration to ourselves and others.
