HONORING LARESA

9/4/2019

 
In addition to being in our permanent supportive housing program with her family for more than seven years, Laresa is an active member of Connections’ Program Committee, a committee of our Board of Directors. Her presence and perspective are invaluable to this committee, and we’re grateful for the many ways she contributes.

Laresa also volunteers with Connections, giving back whenever she can, including at our Drop In and mentoring other families in our housing program. Laresa has gone above and beyond to ensure other families have the support team they need to move forward.
