Keith, 24 years old, DC
Keith aged out of foster care onto experiencing homelessness on the streets when he was 18. Since then he has tried to work any jobs that will hire him, even while staying in shelters and couch surfing. He's had a hard life, but still remains positive through everything. Last month Keith's dream came true when he was finally matched with a housing opportunity. He was overjoyed with knowing how having a safe place to call his own will make employment and even happiness within his grasp. And it has proven to be true! In the last month he has landed a job at Jersey Mikes and enrolled in a vocational program to learn landscaping. He tells me he feels the future is bright and nothing can stop him now!
