"Now Everything's Good"

How you’re helping neighbors who struggle with mental illness.

Victoria was living on the streets when she had her baby girl, so when she had a chance to come to Sulzbacher, she jumped on it. “It was just so great,” Victoria says. “I had been on drugs, and they helped me get clean. At Sulzbacher, you can get any kind of help you need.”

What she really needed was independent living. Her room at Sulzbacher was just too small for her growing family. Victoria’s case manager helped her apply for and eventually receive funding for public housing. When Victoria and her little girl moved into their new — and bigger — place, they were thrilled.

Now Victoria is launching a home-based business, selling her handmade crafts — wreaths, plaques and other decorations. “I love crafting, and I’ve wanted to do this my whole life,” she says. “Thank you for making it possible!”
