Heather's Journey: From Struggle to Empowerment
“My time working at Dunebrook as well as other related community agencies has brought a deeper understanding of how programs and support like Dunebrook’s played an integral role in lifting my family out of intense poverty and into fulfilling and productive lives. I know from personal and professional experience, as a child and an adult, that struggling to bridge gaps in basic needs can overpower even the strongest parent and spill distress and uncertainty on children. While there is no way to directly communicate the extent of the stress plaguing disenfranchised groups - such as single mothers, service workers and the like - it is easy to explain and understand that this leaves no room for gaps in community supports, knowledge of child development, knowledge of evidence-based and non-violent discipline, social connections, and access to an empathetic and caring ear. I am confident that had my single mother had access to services like those Dunebrook provides, we would have found our path out of or around chaos and insecurity much sooner. I am proud to be empowered by the generosity of private donors and corporations to bridge this gap for the families of today and tomorrow.”
