A young, single, dedicated father who works full time in our community needs support. Several months ago, he experienced a separation from his long-term partner. Overwhelmed by grief, he lost himself for a period of time and turned to severe alcohol abuse as a coping mechanism. Admitting to addiction and confronting poor choices requires immense humility, but he has undergone a profound awakening. He has taken accountability for his mistakes and has begun the process of recovery. He has now refocused his life entirely on his children and their ongoing stability. While formal legal custody proceedings have not yet officially begun, his reality is clear: maintaining continuous, safe housing is an absolute prerequisite to preserving his parental rights and ensuring his kids have a stable home. During that dark period, he failed to meet his financial obligations entirely, leaving him with an accumulated rent arrearage of $3,760.00, and placing him on the brink of eviction. Although he works full time, due to taxes and child support garnishment, his take-home pay is significantly lower than necessary to meet three months worth of past due rent, including late fees. His landlord has given him until the end of the month to demonstrate that he is going to pay off his debts, before a formal eviction is initiated. Recognizing this reality, he is reaching out for the first time. He was able to get $3,000 from SSVF and just needs a little bit of extra support to pay off the full amount and prevent eviction. Any financial assistance will serve as a one-time bridge toward self-sustainability for he and his family.
