Who knows what can happen?

Mother: Marinette R
Issues: Housing, Single motherhood, Homelessness

I’ve been trying my best to pay my rent.  It’s been a struggle; it’s been hard.  I can’t let myself go down. I can’t be in a shelter with five kids. My kids are going to get depressed. Who knows what can happen? I always say I would never give up on my kids.

When we spoke to Marinette in her home, her biggest fear was becoming homeless. This fear was realized a few months later, when she had to move into a homeless shelter with her children after being evicted from her house.
