Meet one of our neighbors: for more than ten years, Betsy experienced homelessness, living in shelters and outdoor spaces. In 2017, she was diagnosed with lung cancer, but was unable to receive the appropriate cancer treatment without stable housing. In 2018, Betsy enrolled in FFNP’s Housing First Permanent Supportive Housing Program, and was finally able to obtain safe housing for the first time in years. With permanent supportive housing she was able to pursue regular medical care and complete her treatment. Today, Betsy is cancer-free, living independently in her own apartment, and continues to receive support from FFNP as she thrives.
Please DONATE now. Even $10 makes a difference — and a share helps us reach people who want to help. Thank you for standing with Frederick.
