“They didn’ t just drop me into a new place
and leave me to fend for myself. Casa gave
me a box of food and a grocery gift card to
make sure I didn’ t have an empty fridge,
cleaning supplies to ensure I was able to
keep a clean living space, money to do my
laundry, and phone numbers of people to
contact if I needed anything.”
