Recipient story
After years of homelessness and trauma, the client longs for safe ways to find joy and connection at home.
GIVIT
My client endures chronic homelessness, including rough sleeping, leaving him with significant trauma, anxiety& depression. He has been bullied, exploited & often felt unsafe in both housing& public spaces. As a transgender man, these experiences of exclusion & exploitation have deeply impacted his confidence & ability to trust others.
He's now in a rooming house while waiting for longterm housing, which is a positive step forward. However he struggles with isolation & has limited safe social connections. At times, this has led him to harmful environments such as gambling venues. Together we work to build healthier routines& choices.
Despite said challenges, he is showing resilience & motivation by attending a community lunch every 2wks& joined the library. He's committed to rebuilding his life, but still needs support to create comfort, safety &positive connections at home. The PlayStation will provide an online non-judgemental community, prevent isolation & avoid stigmatisation.
