I do really appreciate that the out reach coordinator met with me yesterday in the park :) ATTACHED A PHOTO OF MYSELF TO SHARE WITH THE PUBLIC WHAT HIDDEN HOMELESSNESS MAKE LOOK LIKE, WE DONT LOOK THE WAY YOU WOULD PICTURE A HOMELESS WOMAN ON THE STREETS. BEING HOMELESS IS SIMULTANEOUSLY WANTED TO BE FOUND AND RECEIVE HOUSING TO GET OFF YOUR FEET AND ALSO WANTING TO REMAIN HIDDEN IN FEAR OF JUDGEMENT, OR OTHERS TELLING YOU WHAT TO DO, WHEN YOU HAVEN 'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY RESOURCES YET. There are no options I have found yet to help single unaccompanied women with a dog or single unaccompanied men with a dog. Animals are vital to the wellbeing of individuals experiencing homelessness and often a barrier to helping individuals out of homelessness. TO THOSE WHO HAVE ANIMALS, AND ARE DOG OR CAT PEOPLE, THEY WOULDN'T PART WITH THEIR ANIMALS JUST TO RECEIVE HOUSING. It's not the Hunger and Health Homeless Coalition's fault, I am a person who has slipped through the cracks and doesn't meet any of the qualifications to receive help that I need for myself and my sweet Dog Sadie Grace. I pray that one day I can help write a law for single unaccompanied women with NO dependents, no safe friends or family to provide housing to get off their feet. I am not on any drugs, I am not mentally ill, I take care of myself, have my teeth cleaned at the dentist, I am well dressed, college degree, almost 33 year old woman with a 11.5 year old dog. I am praying that God will provide in his perfect timing and trusting him as I wait. Please pray for me and my dog, it has been a challenging 6 months. we are not even allowed in the library, I am sitting outside right now on a computer to type this. I praise God for my car and I am looking for a place to rent to work out of.As I wait, I trust in the Lord with all my heart, I lean not on my own understanding, I acknowledge him in all my ways, AND I TRUST HE WILL MAKE MY PATH STRAIGHT and REMOVE ME FROM HOMELESSNESS IN HIS PERFECT TIMING. I HAVE BEEN THROUGH AN EXSHAUSTIVE LIST OF OPTIONS THROUGHOUT COLLIER COUNTY WITH LITTLE TO NO AVAIL SINCE MARCH AND I HAVE KEPT ALL THE DOCUMENTS AND EMAILS AND PAMPLETS TO ONE DAY SHOW EVERYTHING I HAVE BEEN THROUGH AS I TRY TO ADVOCATE FOR MYSELF. GOD IS GOOD AND WILL PULL ME THROUGH. God bless you all, thanks for reading, sincerely Candice Corbin
