When Ashley walked through Atwell’s doors for a pregnancy test, she was met not only with a positive result, but with a tidal wave of fear, guilt, and uncertainty. Having recently escaped an abusive relationship, she was facing the terrifying realities of a housing crisis and deep emotional distress. But she wasn’t alone. An Atwell nurse sat with her, listened with compassion, and offered clarity—providing education on all her options and connecting her with trusted community partners for prenatal care, at Ashley’s request.
That moment sparked a glimmer of hope.
Soon, Ashley was referred to Atwell’s Social Services. Our team worked alongside her to navigate housing solutions, access material resources, and walk with her through the emotional toll of her journey. Step by step, Ashley began to rebuild.
Behind Ashley are countless others who also need support. That’s why our F4H Campaign goal this year is $80,000.
Only through your generosity are Ashley—and hundreds of other clients—able to get the help they need during their time of crisis.
