Taneesha’s Story

Teenesha’s struggle to find a safe place to raise her two sons began long before she moved into Community LINC. She made the first step toward security by escaping a violent home. Sadly, she wasn’t given the time she needed to regroup. Instead, the young family bounced from shelter to shelter and eventually became the victims of two attempted drive-by shootings.

Teenesha was thrilled to finally have a safe and stable home, and be out of the shelter system. The young family now has a home of their own and Teenesha has secured employment and childcare for the boys.
