I feel really supported by SASH.  I love living with Ali and Andrew and feel grateful to them for all the help they give me.  I’m enjoying learning new skills not just at college but also life skills like cooking and budgeting, things that I’ll need to know to live on my own in the future.  I’m trying to not look too far ahead and take each day at a time, but I feel happier than I have done for years.
