Impact Update: Meet Terrance

Our Supportive Services for Veteran Families (SSVF) team is changing lives—just ask Terrance. A U.S. Veteran and current business student at WGU, Terrance came to us while he was living in his car and trying to stay in school.

Due to past trauma, a crowded shelter environment would have been overwhelming and harmful to his progress. Instead, our team placed him in emergency hotel housing and worked quickly to find a permanent solution. Thanks to the tireless efforts of his case manager, Nariyah, Terrance secured housing, and we helped cover his move-in costs, utility deposits, and basic household items.

He now receives rental and utility assistance for up to six months, along with continued case management to ensure long-term stability.

Terrance shared:

"Because of the stability and peace of mind I’ve found through your help, I was able to focus and pass my first class 10 days ahead of schedule... I truly couldn’t have done it without the space and support you’ve given me."

Through our partnership with the VA and HSN, the Christian Service Center is honored to serve those who have served us.
