Help Michelle be Independent

Donation protected
I am an Autistic Native Woman. I was diagnosed Autistic as a kid. I was forced to hide it most of my life and was traumatized, and abused because of this, by peers, and friends. For 34 years I tried to make a living, and always ended up homeless, even though I am a hard worker, I get overwhelmed by society, which causes me to have to be isolated in my home for weeks. I can't hold a normal job because of my PTSD suffered from seeing several gun violence situations in my life. I worked in New Orleans for years. I am finally getting treatment with free health care in Portland. I can't work so I hired lawyers for disability, which I am likely to get next year. There are no programs for basic living needs in Portland for people with mental disabilities, and no programs for money, while waiting for disability. If I were to have money to purchase certain equipment, I could find a place to live, (I am homeless), and a way to make money from home, while waiting on disability. I also need to buy an ID, and pay for medical cards and for my fees for my Emotional Support Animal I can getting and registering to my person care for PTSD Anxiety Depression, and indipendance to go shopping, or anywhere out in public. Please help me get to a place I deserve. I bless all who help me become an independent Woman again.
