Michael

Michael came to Kinship with his mom for food but found more—a supportive community. Through Team Stride and the workforce program, he faced his rough past, gained skills, and secured a full-time construction job. Now, he supports his own home and daughters, returning to Kinship to share his victories.

I was on the verge of really crashing out, Kinship literally saved my life. Now, I have a career as a carpenter. I’m steady growing and providing for my family.
