"Pursuing school while bring homeless is hard. If you're dedicated enough to reach your goals or if you have your eyes set on a specific thing, then you will go for it...Getting to school from MCREST is an hour and a half, sometimes two hours, depending on how the buses run."

"Due to the pandemic, I lost my job. So we went from two incomes to one very quick...It's very very difficult to find housing, an apartment...They don't want to give people an opportunity."

"The MCREST program makes us feel, like I said, we're family. They will listen to us no matter what it is. You can be at your lowest moment and they'll take their time, no matter what, to help everybody. That I've seen here."

"I had called so many places because I didn't know that shelters didn't take you if you were a mother with a child. I thought that all shelters just take you if you need somewhere to go...We came to MCREST and the support was from day one to the end."
