When Jackie’s relationship became abusive, she knew that she needed to get herself and her three children to safety. Following her stay at a domestic violence shelter, she was connected with an advocate at Sarah’s Inn, who helped identify her immediate needs and supported her as she began her healing journey toward a stable and independent life that is free from domestic violence. Through the Safe Bridge Housing Project, a collaboration between two well-established organizations, Sarah’s Inn and Housing Forward, Jackie was able to find housing within a community where she and her children feel safe. The Safe Bridge Housing Project provides survivors and their families with case management and wrap-around support services and resources. Thanks to the Safe Bridge Housing Project, Jackie is now raising her children in a neighborhood where they feel safe, with good schools, and where her children are making friends. She is excited about their future and is extremely thankful to The Safe Bridge Housing Project which has afforded her the ability to provide a safe and loving home for her children.
