Something that helped me find HOPE was…
Seeing all the people around me who either count on me, look up to me, or I have inspired. I realize that even though I may not have a huge circle of friends, I still have power over how my way of life impacts others around me. Because of that no matter how bad a situation might seem I always take a step back and take into account the impact my choices will have in the future.
I’m really grateful for the whole TAFYS team. They consistently show real care for those of us who’ve aged out and always keep us updated on new changes, resources, and benefits we qualify for. And a special thank you to Leroy he always goes above and beyond. Anytime I need something, they’re ready with the right information and connect me to the help I need. I appreciate this team more than they know.
