Monica's Story
When Monica began having pregnancy complications, she visited the emergency room and landed in an unexpected four month stay. As she sought help for her health she began falling behind on her bills and rent. Her health challenge began seriously straining her ability to put food on the table for her young son and her new baby. Through her husband, she was able to connect to SCH and one of our Community Health Workers, Teresa Guillen. Connecting with Teresa and our Program Support, Anaid Hernandez, Monica was able to access 3 months of rental assistance, that caught her up on her rent, food vouchers that helped her feed herself and her young family and connections to employment and job resources to get her career back on track. Donations, in this season of giving, support our work providing resources to young families like Monica's.
