Resident Profiles
From attaining college degrees to becoming first-time homeowners, our residents continue to inspire us with their achievements.
"Marie" - The Family Program
Jerusalem House recognizes the multiple accomplishments of "Marie." A resident of the Jerusalem House Family Program since 2007, Marie is the mother of twin pre-school aged girls, one of whom is HIV positive.
Marie not only recently achieved her GED diploma, but also received the highest score on that exam in the State of Georgia.
Not one to rest on her laurels, Marie also
completed course work and passed the state exams to become a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) within a six month period. This mother of two clearly has not allowed her HIV status or formerly homeless situation keep her down. She truly exemplifies the transformative power of permanent supportive housing.
We congratulate Marie on her accomplishments and look forward to her continued success.
