From Homeless to Homeowner: Maria’s Journey

April 7, 2026 · 5 min read

After escaping domestic violence with her two children, Maria found herself homeless and terrified. With nowhere to turn, she reached out to Rescue Me Mom.

Through our housing program, Maria was placed in transitional housing within 48 hours. Over the next 18 months, she received case management, career counseling, and emotional support. Today, Maria owns her own home and works as a registered nurse, providing a stable and loving environment for her children.

“Rescue Me Mom didn’t just give me a roof over my head,” Maria says. “They gave me the tools and confidence to build a life I never thought possible.”
