Transition and empowerment
Transitioning to Craven Homeless Hub marked a turning point in my life. Prior to my arrival, I faced numerous familial struggles that made each day an uphill battle.

Here I will share how the unwavering support of the staff and their acceptance of me for who I am have created a positive impact on my life, fostering personal growth and opening up new opportunities.
Rediscovering my voice and unlocking personal growth
At Craven Homeless Hub, I found a safe haven where my voice was encouraged and celebrated.

Appreciating my hometown’s acceptance
I am profoundly grateful for the acceptance I have received within Craven Homeless Hub and the town that I hold dear to my heart.

I am drawn to creative jobs that nurture my passion for storytelling and enable me to express my unique ideas. As I continue to reflect on my aspirations, I am excited to embark on a career path that aligns with my creative inclinations and provides opportunities for growth and exploration.
