Sarah had a great childhood. Her parents were both teachers and the family members were able to spend weekends, summers and holidays together. As she entered her 20s, Sarah started to enjoy partying, and at age 30, she unexpectedly found herself pregnant.
Operated by The Salvation Army, Connection Point is a place where everyone is welcome, can feel safe, and will find encouragement, hope and love. It provides community resources, food, a safe place to access Wi-Fi and coffee, emergency hampers, emotional and spiritual care, and one-on-one connection with counsellors.
While at Connection Point, Sarah learned about the Pathway of Hope program, which helps break the cycle of poverty and give people the tools they need to be independent. Counsellors help participants develop their own plan and work alongside participants to help them accomplish their goals. This program allowed Sarah to work through her goals as she learned about budgeting, eating healthy and making time to look after herself and her home.
