I don’t belong here. I’m not supposed to be homeless.
My name is Roberta and two years ago I never would have imagined I would become homeless.
I had a great job with a good salary, a long-term relationship with the love of my life at the time, and my own home. I lived just like many of you.
But there I was in June 2023 sleeping at Cornerstone Housing for Women’s Emergency Shelter.
You don’t think sleeping at a shelter or on the streets can happen to you. I know I didn’t. But it did happen to me. I slept on the streets then stayed in Cornerstone’s shelter.
