Mary, a thirty-five year old mother of one son, Alexander, came to HomeAgain escaping a life of violence and conflict. A graduate of ROTC, Mary joined the navy and completed a 2 ½ year tour after high school and went to work for a group home following her tour of duty. Falling on hard times, Mary accepted the invitation of a friend to help her pay a bill. This free help wasn’t free at all and led her to a life of prostitution. She escaped and came to live with family here in Virginia, but that arrangement did not work out long-term. Desperate and determined to make life better for herself and her son, Mary called the Homeless Point of Entry. She’d heard about HomeAgain and requested placement at our Family Shelter. “I was determined to hit the ground running,” meaning that she would waste no time finding employment and housing. Program Manager, JoLinda Underwood listened to Mary’s dream of obtaining her CDL license and, owning a fleet of trucks. Aware of an opening for a bus driver with the public school system, JoLinda helped Mary get a Virginia driver’s license utilizing the Edward King Fund. Mary participated in a full week of training, walking twenty-five minutes between the bus stop and the training site twice per day. Making a better life for her and her son kept her going. Mary now has her Class B license and is working on her Class- A license. Furthermore, she just started working for the school system and is now in a position to maintain housing. “I don’t want to depend on or be enabled by the system,” she says. She attributes her progress to her faith in God and to the support that she received from HomeAgain.

Helping families and individuals experiencing homelessness to secure and maintain a home, again!

FY 2014 Annual Report

Friends, !I joined HomeAgain in February of 2015 and immediately knew that I had become a part of a special organization with a long and rich history of impactful

service to those experiencing homelessness in our region. Bringing over 26 years of senior management experience in non-profit settings, and 14 years of housing and homelessness experience, I am so proud and excited to be a part of this organization that offers hope and opportunity to so many. I look forward to working with all of you, our funders, donors, partners and volunteers as together, we engage in this movement to end homelessness in our community. !While there are many ways and reasons a family or individual may become homeless, there is only one solution –housing. Like many of you, we recognize that the absence of safe, decent and affordable housing in a person’s life constitutes a debilitating barrier to their health, financial and social stability. Housing is a most basic need and impacts every aspect of life. For that reason, HomeAgain adopted a “Housing First” approach to services. Last year, HomeAgain served 354 households to include 520 individuals. Of the 284 households that took full advantage of our programs, 214 (75%)

Thanks to all of our donors!

We are so very grateful to all who realize the importance of HomeAgain’s mission and support us financially. Our work would be impossible without your support! Due to a technology glitch during the year, the names of some of our donors may be missing. We hope that you will accept our sincere apology and know that you are a cherished supporter and your donation is sincerely appreciated!
