It was over a year ago Step Up member Deborah M. last slept in a home and longer since she slept in her own bed. As a survivor of domestic violence and with no family to rely on, Deborah lived in her car. Last month, Deborah was offered permanent supportive housing in San Bernardino. Once her housing situation was established, she was able to move on to her next goal.

Deborah’s resiliency has made her a role model in the face of adversity. Recently, she was asked to serve on a community board dedicated to finding solutions to end homelessness. Her voice will be heard on the importance of supporting individuals who are experiencing homelessness.
