First Nations Support
Domestic & Family Violence
A young man living with a disability is navigating the harsh realities of homelessness while also enduring the trauma of domestic and family violence (DFV). His disability presents unique challenges that are compounded by the instability of his living situation—daily tasks like accessing transportation, managing healthcare, and finding accessible shelter become overwhelming obstacles without a secure base. The abuse he has faced has left deep emotional scars, and the lack of safe, supportive environments makes it difficult for him to feel safe or valued.
Despite these hardships, he is determined to regain control of his life. He is seeking not only immediate relief and a safe place to stay, but also the resources and support necessary to build long-term independence. We are currently supporting him and he hopes to break free from the cycles of violence and instability, and move toward a future where he can live with dignity, autonomy, and hope.
