Sarah's Success

Community Spotlight: Sarah with her family, after utilizing Mid Michigan Community Action programs to find stable housing and make and keep a monthly budget

Sarah was in the emergency shelter rapid rehousing program, but it would expire in three months. In that time she would need to find a job that would pay enough so she could cover her bills and rent. Sarah worked with one of our Outreach staff to make a plan and a budget and continued looking for a job that would allow her to get by.

While she was in the program, she was asking about budgeting and the best ways to plan ahead to avoid any unforeseen setbacks to make sure she would succeed.
​
By the time Sarah exited the program, she had made a budget and was able to find a job that would allow her to pay all of her bills and rent and still have funds left over each month.

Great job, Sarah! We're so impressed with your determination and discipline!
