Kevin, a military veteran, and his wife, Patty, thought that moving from their rural community to Kansas City, would improve their lives. Instead, they ended up sleeping in their truck each night, exhausted from a day of job searching.

An Internet search led them to Catholic Charities, who helped them navigate resources specially designed for veterans like Kevin. They received financial training, job search assistance, and temporary housing. Within a matter of days, both Patty and Kevin had landed new jobs and permanent housing.
