Finding Hope and Healing at Love in Action

Finding Hope and Healing at Love in Action Rob’s journey began when he sought help from Love in Action after a reference from his employer. Facing surgery and needing time off work, he realized he lacked the resources to survive without a weekly paycheck during his recovery.

Upon arriving at LIA, Rob met with someone who listened to his story and advised him on available resources. Local churches came alongside Rob and provided temporary rental assistance through LIA’s Housing Ministry Collaborative. Additionally, he was able to join the Community Co-op for food assistance and participate in a Thrive class on financial fitness.

After assessing his personal finances, Rob was able to set a course for financial freedom. He developed a plan to be debt-free in three years and purchase a house in five. His goal is to return to the Co-op as a volunteer to help others moving forward.
