"Living in a Host Home through NIRCS gave me the stability I never had. I’m learning life skills through coaching and building real relationships." — Maya T., Transition Home Participant
"For most of my life, I didn’t think living on my own was possible. I grew up in my childhood home, always needing help with everyday things. But then I found NIRCS. They didn’t just give me a place to live—they gave me the tools to thrive, including life skills coaching. I learned how to budget, manage my schedule, and even cook dinner for myself. Now, I’m working part-time at a local café and saving up for my own apartment. I feel confident, capable, and excited for what’s next. NIRCS believed in me when I didn’t believe in myself." — Sam W., Future SCL Home Resident
