I first became homeless in 1991, after my mother passed away. I slept in the park with my baby and didn’t have anywhere to go. We’ve been living doubled up now with different families until there’s no more room for us. Right today me and my daughter, Mariah, are homeless. My son is living with his uncle, Albert. My brother, George, was killed at work last summer. Please, can somebody help me find a home? I need a place to call my own. I stopped school at 10th grade. My kids have their high school diplomas. I recently started the G.E.D. program at Kennedy-King College. It’s free. I want to better my life and say I finished school.
