(Community Matters 192) Run-Up to Roofsit 5: A Safe Place to Start Over

This is the fifth and final in a series of interviews shedding light on The Haven of Rest's mission and programs ahead of its annual Roofsit fundraiser. The Haven marks its 70th anniversary in 2026.

”Sheree” talks about how incarceration led to losing housing, months of couch hopping, and the moment she finally chose the Haven of Rest for help. We also dig into the real barriers to getting housed again and why Roofsit donations keep the path open for families in Battle Creek.
