I went through my life very depressed. I learned art through high school and have enjoyed it for many years. I had a lot of death and sickness in my family. I was homeless for two years then I started going to Wellstone. I received an apartment two years ago and am now receiving disability which has changed my life and has given me new meaning. I help with the homeless and teach art at Our Place Drop-In Center every Friday. Life has new meaning now and my future has hope.
