A Homeless Woman’s Commitment
Produces her Key to Independence!
We are giving thanks today for the sweet success story of Ms. Elizabeth Rolle-- pictured above with Bridge Healthcare Navigator, Kathleen Summerour and Bridge Director Michael Forrester.
Elizabeth entered the Bridge shelter a few months ago after fleeing from her woods encampment during a domestic situation with her boyfriend.
With the help of the Bridge staff, volunteers, and programs, a couple of weeks ago, Elizabeth finally secured her SSI benefits. On Monday, November 15th, 2021, she received her keys to her new apartment.
“This life-changing story of success was beautiful to watch,” says Bridge Director Michael Forrester. “Because she was committed to the process and walked it out, she now has a true sense of accomplishment and independence. This is an example of precisely why we are here and the outcome we strive for, for each client that walks through our doors.”
