Z’s Story

Follow Us for Updates

Your support will help a resident like Z, who couch-hopped after his family couldn’t provide the stability he needed to succeed. At 17, he worked to find people who could provide a better model for him, who would keep him accountable for his goals: to finish school and find steady employment.

Just a few months after moving into his Aeon home, Z began to thrive. Today, he has a case manager who helps with necessities and has connected him to a local gym that he can attend for free. With a stable home, Z has been able to focus on his own growth and well-being.  

“The staff make it very comfortable. It feels so good to have people in my life who actually want to see me do better. It keeps me going every day. We are all on our own successful journey by ourselves, but we are all in it together in a way. When I see my neighbors, I know if I need help, somebody will be there. It gives a sense of home.” — Z 

You can make a real difference by giving today. Your support will help residents like Z have a chance to thrive. Your gift will give residents the support they need – staff who will check in and help them build toward a stronger, healthier future.
