The Overwhelming Obstacles

Kristen's battles with horrific trauma started at age three and, sadly, it's been one thing after another through her life.

She lost her job two years ago and has been unable to secure work which means she has to face those battles without income, insurance, or transportation. She has chronic health issues, crippling PTSD, agoraphobia, and a host of other problems.

Kristen is facing eviction and winter is here. Your support helps Kristen and her kitty Stella stay housed, fed, and medicated which, as we all know, is crucial.

Past support has helped keep Kristen afloat and paid her back rent. Gotten her much needed meds, food, supplies, and doctor visits. But she's still unemployed and dealing with PTSD, so your continued help would be appreciated.

Here’s how your support will be used:

❖ Rent relief: ongoing as she continues to look for work.

❖ Medical care + prescriptions

❖ Basic living expenses (groceries, phone, internet)

❖ Transportation support

"I am legitimately realizing just HOW MUCH of what I've survived, that I not only don't talk about publicly, I have never actually told anyone except my therapist. Because I have always been terrified that either people will see me as irrevocably broken and therefore worthless, or that people will hurt me with these things." - Kristen
