Help for homelessness in Puerto Rico
From people who came through it
“To whoever needs this: I was where you are eighteen months ago. For me it was a hostel bed. My kids say I'm back. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.”
Diego from Bogotá · been through homelessness“If you are just starting out with nowhere to sleep, I will not pretend it is fine. It is not. Your phone is your lifeline. Keep it charged. Find the places that give free meals. Learn their times. Be polite, even when you are exhausted. A hostel bed is not the Ritz but it is a door you can lock. Do not give up on the clinic. The line is long but it is a line forward. Some days you will want to quit. Just get through the next hour. That is all.”
stillbike88 · been through homelessness“If you're scared right now, I get it. I was right where you are about three years ago. Back then it was sleeping in my car. I wake up most days without that dread. It's slow, but it does come back.”
softsummer · been through homelessness“Cuando empecé, no sabía si íbamos a salir. Pero se puede. Poco a poco. Busca ayuda. No tengas miedo de pedir. Los niños necesitan verte fuerte. Y tú necesitas descansar. No estás solo.”
