How Mercy Housing changes lives through its programs and services.
“Being in [The Haven at Charter Oak] has helped me evolve into a better version of myself.”
“I’m grateful to Mercy Housing because I thought all hope was gone. They gave me a chance.”
“Mercy Housing is a lifesaver. My life is more structured since I got here. I’m sober, and I’m taking care of my health. Without Mercy, I could have been dead.”
“The help and support I have received from Mercy has turned my life around, something I didn’t think was possible at my age.”
“Mercy Housing is the only reason I am still housed, safe, fed, healthy, living with dignity, positive about the future – and alive to speak with you today.”
