Transitional SupportI am beyond grateful for this chance and this opportunity to better my life and just be the best me and the best mom that I can be. Today I have full custody of my kids. I’ve sought forgiveness from those I’ve hurt. I’m really looking forward to my future to see what’s in store for me. Thank you.

What life looked like before this was lonely, in a jail cell, doing whatever I could to get money. Today, I am a productive member of society. I truly have a life that I’d never imagined.
